Abstract
The thermal decomposition of PH2BH2 center dot NMe3 (1) in closed system was studied by static tensimetry with membrane null-manometer. Compound 1 is unstable already at room temperature and partially decomposes with the release of gaseous trimethylamine and nonvolatile polymeric material.

Abstract
The thermal decomposition of PH2BH2 center dot NMe3 (1) in closed system was studied by static tensimetry with membrane null-manometer. Compound 1 is unstable already at room temperature and partially decomposes with the release of gaseous trimethylamine and nonvolatile polymeric material. Storage of 1 at 311 K for 53 days results in evolution of small amounts of hydrogen and phosphine. At temperatures up to 329 K, PH3 evolution and BH3NMe3 adduct formation is observed after 3 days, and above 387 K, considerable amount of hydrogen gas is released. The data obtained indicate that the pyrolysis of 1 in the closed system may result in the enrichment of the condensed phase with boron due to phosphine loss.
