Borane tert-butylamine complex (TBAB) is an amine borane complex composed of tert-butylamine and borane.

In organic synthesis, TBAB can be used for selective reduction of certain functional groups including aldehydes, ketones, oximes, and imines.[2]

In photographic processing, it is used in the E-4 and the E-6 processes.
