Popis: The stepwise reduction of a doubly cyclic alkyl(amino)carbene (CAAC)-stabilized 2,3-bis(dibromoboryl)naphthalene enables the isolation of the corresponding mono- and bis(boryl) radicals (one- and two-electron reduction), a 2π-aromatic 1,2-diborete (four-electron reduction), which shows biradical character in the solid-state EPR spectrum, and its cyclic bis(alkylidene)diboron dianion (six-electron reduction). The X-ray crystallographic analysis of the diborete shows a highly strained and twisted four-membered ring with a formal
