	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;
