General description
Boron trichloride (BCl3) is a boron halide typically used as a reagent in organic synthesis for the cleavage of C-O bonds in ethers.
Application
Boron trichloride (BCl3) can be used as a reactant in the preperation of borazine-linked polymer [BLP-10(Cl)] by thermal decomposition with benzidine for gas storage and purification.

A general method to prepare a new class of carbohydrate-derived, enantiomerically pure polyhydroxypyrroline N-oxides from their alkoxy (protected) derivatives is presented. Boron trichloride is shown to cleave efficiently benzyl ethers and ketals without affecting the imine N-oxide functionality of nitrones.
