Treatment of a mixture of α-iodo-γ-butyrolactone and phenylacetylene in water with a catalytic amount of triethylborane provided the corresponding adduct in good yield via intermolecular radical addition reaction. The triethylborane-mediated radical reaction in aqueous media could be performed under acidic or basic conditions.
