Abstract
Going fishing! The sulfonium borane [1](+) complexes cyanide in pure water at the maximum allowable concentration of 50 ppb recommended by the European Union. The high cyanide ion affinity displayed by this compound arises from favorable Coulombic effects augmented by a direct bonding interaction between the cyano and sulfonio groups.
