5‐Diethylboryl‐2,3′‐bipyridine (1), which is inaccessible by conventional batch methods, was synthesized by using a flow microreactor. Compound1was obtained as an equilibrium mixture of a cyclic trimer and a cyclic tetramer in solution, the latter of which was crystallized in benzene by vapor diffusion of hexane at 7 °C. The dynamic nature of this system was confirmed by solvent‐ and concentration‐dependent experiments. Notably, the dynamics was verified by using flow NMR spectroscopy, which revealed that the time required to reach equilibrium was influenced by the solvent ratio (<18 s, 24–28 s, and 34–42 s in 2 : 1, 1 : 1, and 1 : 2 mixtures of [D6]acetone and C6D6, respectively). Compound1and 3‐[4′‐(diethylboryl)phenyl]pyridine (2) exhibited different self‐assembly behavior in solution and crystals. Density functional theory calculations suggested that this difference was largely due to enhanced planarity between two consecutive aromatic rings.
