ABSTRACT=<p>Stannylation of calcium carbide followed by Sn–hypervalent iodine(III) exchange reaction cleanly afforded the electrophilic ethynylating agent ethynyl(phenyl)-λ<sup>3</sup>-iodane in high yield. This two-step method uses very inexpensive materials and is readily operable without any special precautions.</p>
