Cationic (2a,b) and formally zwitterionic (3a,b) Rh(I) and Ir(I) complexes supported by P,N-substituted indene or indenide ligands (respectively) have been employed in the selective hydroboration of substituted vinylarenes with pinacolborane (HBpin, pin = 1,2-O2C2Me4). Notably, 3a,b exhibited remarkably high, but differing, selectivities in the hydroboration of 1-phenylpropene.
