Connect five : Theoretical studies reveal that a Group 4 metal can significantly stabilize an unusual four‐membered metallacycloallene. The role of the substituents R that donate two electrons to the complex is decisive. The systems contain an unprecedented crucial MC bond in the MC 3 ring (see scheme; Cp=cyclopentadienyl, NHC=N‐heterocyclic carbene).
