1,2,3‐Triazolylidene‐based mesoionic carbene boranes have been synthesized in a convenient one‐pot protocol from the corresponding 1,2,3‐triazolium salts, base, and borane. Borenium ions are obtained by hydride abstraction and serve as catalysts in mild hydrogenation reactions of imines and unsaturated N‐heterocycles at ambient pressure and temperature.
