dc.descriptionWe calculate the flavor-singlet contribution to the $B\toη^{(\prime)}$ transition form factors from the gluonic content of the $η^{(\prime)}$ meson in the large-recoil region using the perturbative QCD approach. The formulation for the $η$-$η'$ mixing in the quark-flavor and singlet-octet schemes is compared, and employed to determine the chiral enhancement scales associated with the two-parton twist-3 $η^{(\prime)}$ meson distribution amplitudes. It is found that the gluonic contribution is negligible in the $B\toη$ form factors, and reaches few percents in the $B\toη'$ ones. Its impact on the accommodation of the measured $B\toη^{(\prime)} K$ branching ratios in the perturbative QCD and QCD-improved factorization approaches is elaborated.
