Nonclassical pyramidanes with their inverted tetrahedral configuration of the apical atom are among the most challenging synthetic targets in cluster chemistry. In this Communication, we report on the synthesis and structure of the first representative of pyramidal compounds with the group 13 element at the apex, namely, chloroborapyramidane 2. Reduction of 2 with excess of lithium metal unexpectedly produced the cage-opening product, borole dianion derivative {3(2-)center dot [Li(thf)(+)](2)}, a 6 pi-electron aromatic system.
