A boron analogue of vinyl cation, pyridine-stabilized N-phosphinoamidinato N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-diboravinyl cation 2+ , was synthesized by displacement of bromide in diborene 1 with excess pyridine. Experimental and computational studies showed that the positive charge is mainly at the B-B s...
