A framework rearrangement and a migration of a hydrogen atom result in the formation of the carborane 2 from the bridged boretane 1 . The crystal structure analysis shows that the four‐membered ring in 1 is extremely folded. This suggests a 1,3‐transannular interaction between the free p orbital at the B atom and the exocyclic double bond at the C atom. Both the formation of 1 from the nonisolable ( t BuBCHCCMe 2 ) 2 dimer and the rearrangement to 2 are novel reactions.
