## Abstract A high‐yielding alternative synthesis of the dppm‐bridged heteronuclear cluster RuOs~3~(μ‐H)~2~(CO)~9~(μ‐CO)~2~(μ‐dppm) (1) [dppm = bis(diphenylphosphanyl)methane] has been developed. Thermolysis of 1 resulted in dephenylation of both phosphane groups to afford the butterfly cluster RuO
