We describe a catalyst-free 1,2-trans-dihalogenation of alkynes with an unprecedented substrate scope and exclusive regio- and stereoselectivity. This versatile dihalogenation system-a combination of (NXS)-S-1 electrophile and alkali metal halide (MX2) in acetic acid-is applicable for diverse categories of alkynes (electron-rich or poor alkynes, internal and terminal alkynes, or heteroatoms such as O-, N-, S-substituted alkynes). The hydrogen bonding donor solvent acetic acid is essential for the in-situ generation of (XX2)-X-1 electrophile, including ICI, IBr, BrCl, I-2 and Br-2.
