Place two B : The isolation of the first terminal, mononuclear bis(borylene) complex (see structure) represents a significant step towards the synthesis of homoleptic borylene complexes, and also provides deeper insight into the bonding characteristics of borylene complexes in general. A preliminary elucidation of the question of how two terminal BR ligands affect each other when bound to the same metal center is presented.
