Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLPs) have been shown to be able to activate small molecules such as H<sub>2</sub>.  Building on last year’s reported synthesis of the new intramolecular FLP 1-{2-[diphenylboryl]benzyl}-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperdine, the result of its purification and reaction with hydrogen will be reported.
