The first tetraethynyl[3]cumulene derivatives 2 have been prepared from 1 and structurally characterized by X‐ray analysis. The central butatiene double bond is the most reactive site in 2 and can be selectively reduced by triphenylphosphane in the presence of water to form the strongly fluorescing 1,1,4,4‐tetraethynyl‐1,3‐butadiene. Rhodium( I ) also undergoes complexation at the central cumulene double bond. R = SiMe 3 , Si i Pr 3 .
