The crystal structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares on F² to final values of R₁ = 0.0555 and wR₂ = 0.1668. The structure consists of an iron four butterfly structure overbridged by 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiyne. Carbon atoms in one alkyne group of 1,3-diyne bond to the wing-tip iron atoms by (η²:2π)-bonds with atomic distances of Fe3-C1 2.001(6), Fe3-C3 1.968(6), Fe4-C1 1.985(6), and Fe4-C3 2.022(6)Å, and to the hinge iron atoms by (η¹:2σ)-bonds with bond lengths of Fe2-C1 1.955(6) and Fe1-C3 1.989(6)Å. However, the dihedral angle between the two Fe₃-triangles is 108.65°, and two carbon mono-oxide are face-capped on the wings with an atomic distance of Fe-C 1.900(8) - 2.065(7)Å.
