Abstract: The title compound, [bis(diphenylphosphino)methane-2²P,P']--carbonyl-1:2C-carbonyl-1C-[1(⁵)-cyclopentadienyl](-phenylvinylidene-1:2²C)manganeseplatinum(Mn-Pt) diethyl ether solvate, (⁵-C₅H₅)(CO)(-CO)MnPt(-C=CHPh)(²-Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂)·Et₂O or [MnPt(C₅H₅)(C₈H₆)(C₂₅H₂₂P₂)(CO)₂]·C₄H₁₀O, represents the first example of a structurally characterized -vinylidene Mn-Pt complex [Mn-Pt 2.6068 (10) Å]. Two metal atoms are bridged by a -phenylvinylidene ligand [Mn-C 1.924 (7), Pt-C 1.991 (6) and C=C 1.363 (9) Å] and an asymmetrical -carbonyl ligand [Mn-C 1.826 (7), Pt-C 2.212 (7), C-O 1.189 (8) Å, Mn-C-O 153.4 (6) and Pt-C-O 126.7 (5)°].
