Now tamed : For decades preparative research on 1,1,4,4‐tetrafluorobutatriene was not pursued because of the explosive nature of the compound. Two new transition‐metal complexes containing a tetrafluorobutatriene ligand (see picture; green F/Cl, gray C, red O, purple P, orange Ir/Rh) have been prepared from the free triene, and both complexes are air‐stable.
