The same redox behavior–except for a reversal in sign — is displayed by the long‐known p ‐phenylenediamine 1 (R = alkyl, aryl) and the novel B,B,B′,B ′‐tetramesityl‐ p ‐phenylenediborane 2 . Electrochemical and ESR/ENDOR studies reveal that the acceptor strength of the dimesitylboryl substituent is only surpassed by the nitro group.
