1,2-Dihydro-1,2-azaborine is an aromatic chemical compound with properties intermediate between benzene and borazine. Its chemical formula is C₄BNH₆. It resembles a benzene ring, except that two adjacent carbons are replaced by nitrogen and boron, respectively.

Preparation

After decades of failed attempts, the compound was synthesized in 2008 and reported in January 2009.[1][2]

One of the synthetic steps is a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction:[3]

gollark: Mere sort?

gollark: Too bad, you will be rotated in 7-space.

gollark: Just get good and read the machine code.

gollark: Well, I find your dichotomy "literal apioform".

gollark: That's reverse engineering of things, you literal metaphorical bee.
