Mechanochemistry has been applied for the first time to an iridium(I)‐catalyzed C−H borylation reaction. By using either none or just a catalytic amount of a liquid, the mechanochemical C−H borylation of a series of heteroaromatic compounds proceeded in air to afford the corresponding arylboronates in good‐to‐excellent yields. A one‐pot mechanochemical C−H borylation/Suzuki–Miyaura cross‐coupling sequence for the direct synthesis of 2‐aryl indole derivatives is also described. The present study constitutes an important milestone towards the development of industrially attractive solvent‐free C−H bond functionalization processes in air.
