Contrastive that the conventional metal-ligand cooperative cleavage of a B-H bond provides a B cation on the ligand and an H anion on the metal, herein we report the first umpolung of B-H bonds by novel cyclopentadienone iridium complexes. For HBpin (= 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane) and HBdan (= 1,8-naphthalenediaminatoborane), the B-H bonds were cleaved into a B anion on the metal and an H cation on the phenolic oxygen in the ligand. The mechanistic investigation by DFT calculations revealed that the alkoxycarbonyl-substituted cyclopentadienone ligand facilitated the deprotonation from Ir-H after oxidative addition of the B-H bond to give the umpolung product. The generated boryliridium complex was found to undergo borylation of allyl halide in the presence of base to show nucleophilic nature of the boron atom.
