Tuning the nature of the linker in a L∼BHR phosphinoborane compound led to the isolation of a ruthenium complex stabilized by two adjacent, δ‐CH and ε‐B sp2 H, agostic interactions. Such a unique coordination mode stabilizes a 14‐electron “RuH 2 P 2 ” fragment through connected σ‐bonds of different polarity, and affords selective BH, CH, and BC bond activation as illustrated by reactivity studies with H 2 and boranes.
