Question

why borazine is called borazole?

Answer 1

Borazole is called as inorganic benzene. It is isostructural to benzene and involves EAS reaction similar to benzene. Borazole is more reactive than benzene towards EAS reaction. Borazine is a highly polar molecule due to high Electronegativity difference between Boron and Nitrogen. The pi bonds in borazine are highly polarized than pi bonds in benzene. Thus borazine is more nucleophillic hence more reactive than benzene.

Answer 2

... Borazine's structure is isoelectronic with benzene.
Borazine is called as Inorganic Benzene because it has same structure like Benzene .
In Borazine , 6 carbon atoms of Benzene are replaced by Three B atoms and Three N atoms. There by total numbers of electrons in Borazine and Benzene is same.
