	Despite recent advancements in the chemistry of multiply bound boron compounds, the laboratory isolation of the parent oxoborane moiety, HBO has long remained an unsolved and well-recognized challenge. The reaction of 6-SIDipp(.)BH3 [6-SIDipp = 1,3-di(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)tetrahydropyrimidine2-ylidene] with GaCl3 afforded an unusual boron-gallium 3c-2e compound (1). The addition of water to 1 resulted in the release of H-2 and the formation of a rare acid stabilized neutral parent oxoborane, LB(H)]O (2). Crystallographic and density functional theory (DFT) analyses support the presence of a terminal B=O double bond. Subsequent addition of another equivalent of water molecule led to hydrolysis of the B-H bond to the B-OH bond, but the `B=O' moiety remained intact, resulting in the formation of the hydroxy oxoborane compound (3), which can be classified as a monomeric form of metaboric acid.&lt;/p&gt;

	Reactions of 5-SIDipp &amp;amp; sdot; BH3 (5-SIDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazolin-2-ylidene) (1) with diphenyldiselenide provide access to 5-SIDipp-boryl mono- (5-SIDipp &amp;amp; sdot; BH2SePh) (2) and bis-selenide (5-SIDipp &amp;amp; sdot; BH(SePh)2) (3). The facile cleavage of the B-Se bond makes 2 a neutral source of selenium nucleophiles in substitutions reactions with benzyl bromides, and provide access to the corresponding selenoethers. The direct transformations of one of the C(sp2)-F bonds of C5F5N and C6F5CF3 to C-Se bonds have also been achieved by the use of 2 without employing transition-metal catalysts. While it was previously established that C6F6 could undergo complete defluoroselenation under harsh conditions, we successfully achieved partial defluorination of C6F6 by employing 2 as a mild selenide transfer reagent. During the formation of C-Se bonds through the cleavage of C-F bonds, the potential by-product NHC &amp;amp; sdot; BH2F undergoes ring expansion of the NHC, leading to the formation of the six-membered diaazafluoroborinane (7). Access to NHC &amp;amp; sdot; boryl mono- and bis-selenides from NHC &amp;amp; sdot; BH3 has been achieved. The boryl mono selenide has been demonstrated to function as a selenium transfer reagent, enabling the synthesis of selenoethers from benzyl bromide. Additionally, it can also facilitate the conversion of the challenging aromatic C-F bond to a C-Se bond, resulting in concomitant ring expansion of NHC &amp;amp; sdot; haloborane.image&lt;/p&gt;

	In this study, we describe the reactions of five- and six-membered saturated N-heterocyclic carbene boranes (NHC &amp;amp; centerdot;BH3) with electron-deficient alkenes and alkynes. Notably, both five- and six-membered saturated NHCs form boriranes upon the reaction of NHC &amp;amp; centerdot;BH3 with dimethyl acetylene dicarboxylate (DMAD). However, their reactivity with HCl differs: the five-membered saturated NHC-stabilized borirane undergoes ring opening in toluene/THF, whereas the six-membered saturated NHC-stabilized borirane undergoes ring expansion, forming exclusively a boralactone irrespective of solvent. Interestingly, when acetonitrile is used as a solvent, the five-membered saturated NHC-stabilized borirane yields both ring-opening and ring-expansion products. To remove the hydrogen attached to the boron atom in boriranes, we reacted the five-membered saturated NHC-stabilized borirane with AlCl3 and B(C6F5)(3), resulting in azaborolium cation or adduct formation, respectively. Transitioning from an electron-deficient alkyne to an alkene, the reaction of six-membered saturated NHC &amp;amp; centerdot;BH3 with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) led to the unusual coupling of two TCNE molecules.&lt;/p&gt;
