Metal‐free regioselective carboboration of arylnitriles with L 2 PhB: ( 1 : L=oxazol‐2‐ylidene) catalyzed by Et 3 B afforded the unprecedented acyclic 2‐aza‐4‐borabutadienes 2 , thus demonstrating a new strategy to construct a B,C,N‐mixed π‐system involving B=C and C=N bonds. Thermal isomerization of 2 gave C‐borylimines ( 3 ), and diverse reactivity of 2 a towards several substrates, such as H + , F + , O 2 , S, Se, and isonitriles, allowed construction of boron‐containing heterocycles with various ring sizes, thus illustrating the utility of 2 as a synthetic building block.
