Reaction of the platinum(0) complex [{Pt(η-ViSiMe2)2O}2(μ-ViSiMe2)2O] with a bis- or tris-tertiary phosphine yields, by displacement of the bridging vinylsiloxane ligand, complexes featuring both a bridging phosphine and a terminal vinylsiloxane. The zinc reduction of [NiCl2(PPh3)2] in the presence of the vinylsilane Vi2SiMe2 yields a dinuclear heteroleptic nickel(0) complex having a bridging vinylsilane. X-ray molecular structures of the complexes [{Pt(LL)}2(dppe)], [{Pt(LL) }3(TRIPHOS)], [{ Pt(LL)}3(TRIPHOS')] and [{Ni(μ- Vi2SiMe2)(PPh3)}2] show a trigonal planar environment around the metal atoms and a chair conformation for the Pt(LL) units [LL = (η-ViSiMe2)2O, dppe = (Ph2PCH2)2, TRIPHOS = (Ph2PCH2)3CMe, TRIPHOS' = PhP(CH2CH2PPh2)2].
