In contrast to the two only known complexes with μ 3 ‐η 2 : η 2 : η 2 arene ligands and to benzene on densest packed metal surfaces the title complex 1 exhibits almost complete bond length equalization in the aromatic ring. 1 can be prepared in a one‐pot reaction from [CpCo(C 2 H 4 ) 2 ] and trans ‐β‐methylstyrene or allylbenzene.
