Reactions of trans‐(C6F5)(p‐tol3P)2Pt(C≡C)nSiEt3 (PtC2nSi; n = 5, 7, 9) and excess PtCl in the presence of wet n‐Bu4N+ F– under Sonogashira‐type conditions (CuCl, base, other additives) afford the title compounds PtC10Pt, PtC14Pt, and PtC18Pt in 42‐32% yields. A four‐fold substitution of the phosphine ligands in PtC10Pt by PEt3 affords Pt'C10Pt' (78%), and a Sonogashira reaction of Pt'C2H and Pt'Cl affords Pt'C2Pt' (68%). Certain sp chain extension reactions that lead to or employ the precursors PtC10Si, PtC12Si, PtC14Si, and PtC18Si sometimes give byproducts derived from C2 loss, and possible origins are discussed.
