Can you help me with preparing an alkane from a trialkylborane using acetic acid?
Sure, I'd be happy to help. To prepare an alkane from a trialkylborane using acetic acid, you will first need to react the trialkylborane with acetic acid to form an intermediate. Once you have formed the intermediate, you can then reduce it to form the alkane.
