2,3‐Bis(dimethylamino)‐substituted B 2 N 2 C 2 heterocycles underwent selective dimethylamino/hydride exchange with either one or two equivalents of BH 3 ⋅ SMe 2 to give the corresponding cyclic monohydrido‐ or ( cis )1,2‐dihydridodiboranes(4), respectively. Upon either heating or irradiation in solution, the latter underwent ring contraction to the corresponding five‐membered BN 2 C 2 heterocycles, whereas irradiation of the 1,2‐dimethylaminoethene‐supported 1,2‐dihydridodiborane(4) in the presence of PEt 3 gave an unprecedented unsymmetrical 1,1‐dihydrodiborane(5) phosphine adduct.
