Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>An ansa‐aminoborane an intramolecular frustrated Lewis pair with the smallest Lewis acidic boryl site (BH₂), predominantly exists in quenched dimeric form in solution. A monomeric species accountable for hydrogen activation is also present in equilibrium.
