Herein, we report the B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 ‐catalyzed E ‐selective isomerization of alkenes. The transition‐metal‐free method is applicable across a diverse array of readily accessible substrates, giving access to a broad range of synthetically useful products containing versatile stereodefined internal alkenes. The reaction mechanism was investigated by using synthetic and computational methods.
