An arylborane‐appended analogue of the catalytically important dppf ligand, FcPPB, was prepared and is represented by the industrial robot in the image. FcPPB provided access to platinum complexes featuring η 3 BCC ‐, η 2 BC ‐, η 1 B ‐ and Pt–H–B coordination modes, and reaction of the η 3 BCC ‐coordinated complex with PhC 2 H transformed the arylborane into an η 3 BCC ‐coordinated vinylborane.
