N2 - The preparation, characterisation and single-crystal XRD molecular structure determinations of four complexes containing-CC-MLn end-groups, namely Ru{C CFc'(I)}(dppe)Cp (1), the vinylidene [Os(=C=CH2)(PPh3)(2)Cp]PF6 (2), trans-Pt(C=CC6H4-4-C=CPh)-{C CC6H4-4-C2Ph[Co-2(mu-dppm)(CO)(4)]}(PPh3)(2) (3), and C6H4{mu(3)-C-2-[AuRu3(CO)(9)(PPh3)]}(2)-1,4 (4) are reported. In these compounds a range of -CC- environments is found, extending from the sigma-bonded alkynyl group in 1 to examples where the C-2 unit interacts with either a proton (in vinylidene 2), by bridging a dicobalt carbonyl moiety (in 3) or the AuRu3 cluster in 4. Changes in geometry are rationalised by considering the various bonding modes.
