Two representatives of the three membered B 2 N-ring system have been obtained by dehalogenation of diborylamines Me 3 CN[BHalNR 2 ] 2 . In solution there is no restricted rotation at the exocyclic BN bond, even at low temperature. In contrast, the X-ray structure analysis of the bis-tetramethylpiperidino derivative 10a reveals alternation of short and long BN bonds; one of the tetramethylpiperidino groups stands nearly coplanar with the B 2 N-ring system, the other, however, is almost perpendicular to the ring plane. The ring contains a short BB bond (1.612 Å).
