Abstract
Treatment of a mixture of alpha-iodo-gamma-butyrolactone and phenylacetylen e in water with a-catalytic amount of triethylborane provided the correspon ding adduct in good yield via intermolecular radical addition reaction. The triethylborane-mediated radical reaction in aqueous media could be perform ed under acidic or basic conditions.
