A neutral 1,4-diaza-2,3,5,6-tetraborinine derivative (3) featuring a 6 pi ring system has been synthesized and structurally characterized. The prospective aromatic nature of 3 was assessed by single-crystal X-ray analysis, NMR, and UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy as well as computational studies. Furthermore, preliminary reactivity investigations showed that 3 does not only react with diphenyl acetylene but also readily captures CO2 in a [4+2] cycloaddition under ambient conditions.
