The preparation of ordered mesoporous boron nitride by using borazinic precursors as boron nitride source (tri(methylamino)borazine (MAB) and tri(chloro)borazine TCB) and a mesoporous carbon CMK-3 as template is reported. A template elimination performed by hydrogenation allows to obtain an organized porous structure. The X-ray diffraction, TEM and pore size analysis show that the structure of the BN molecular sieves synthesized from CMK-3 consists in a 2D regular array of uniform mesopores of 3.4 nm in diameter.
