Boranes with a bang ! Combining reducing and oxidizing fragments in a single covalently bonded structure is an attractive strategy for the construction of high‐energy materials. In this work, the syntheses of a series of unusual boranes, bearing one or two dinitroamide fragments at the boron atom, are reported. Ab initio calculations and experimental data suggest that these boranes exist in two slowly interconvertible isomeric forms (B,N‐ and B,O‐linked) that may have distinct explosive characteristics.
