Diphenylbutadiyne is the hydrocarbon with the formula (C₆H₅C₂)₂. It is a member of the diyne chemical class and can be made via the Glaser coupling of phenylacetylene^[2] However, a variety of other synthesis methods have been developed.^[3]^[4]

Diphenylbutadiyne forms a variety of metal-alkyne complexes. One example is the organonickel complex (C₅H₅Ni)₄C₄(C₆H₅)₂.^[5]
