Highly efficient and selective hydroboration of nitriles and carbodiimides with pinacolborane (HBpin) is achieved by using the simple and convenient n ‐BuLi as a catalyst. Solvent‐free and good functional group tolerance under mild conditions have been achieved. A possible mechanistic pathway of the n ‐BuLi catalyzed hydroboration of nitriles with HBpin is proposed.
