Palladium‐catalyzed intermolecular coupling of o ‐carborane with aromatics by direct cage B−H bond activation has been achieved, leading to the synthesis of a series of cage B(4,5)‐diarylated‐ o ‐carboranes in high yields with excellent regioselectivity. Traceless directing group ‐COOH plays a crucial role for site‐ and di‐selectivity of such intermolecular coupling reaction. A Pd II –Pd IV –Pd II catalytic cycle is proposed to be responsible for the stepwise arylation.
