Abstract Intermolecular, stepwise functionalization by BH bonds of a (triphosphine)Mo IV –nitrido complex generated by N 2 splitting is reported. The imido–hydride and di‐hydride–amido Mo IV complexes have been isolated and characterized. Addition of PinBH to the [Mo(H) 2 (N(BPin) 2 )] + complex at room temperature results in the liberation of borylamines from the metal center.
