The frustrated Lewis pair comprised of B(C6F5)3 and a boryl–borate lithium salt Li[pinBB(Ph)pin] can efficiently activate dihydrogen, pinacolborane and ethylene at ambient temperature. Theoretical studies suggest that the nucleophilic sp2 boryl moiety of Li[pinBB(Ph)pin] plays different roles in these reactions.
