The possible role of the triangle mechanism in the B− decay into D∗0π−π0η and D∗0π−π+π− is investigated. In this process, the triangle singularity appears from the decay of B− into D∗0K−K∗0 followed by the decay of K∗0 into π−K+ and the fusion of the K+K− which forms the a0(980) or f0(980) which finally decay into π0η or π+π− respectively. The triangle mechanism from the Kˉ∗KKˉ loop generates a peak around 1420 MeV in the invariant mass of π−a0 or π−f0, and gives sizable branching fractions Br(B−→D∗0π−a0;a0→π0η)=1.66×10−6 and Br(B−→D∗0π−f0;f0→π+π−)=2.82×10−6.
