A four‐component reaction of terminal alkynes, aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborates, sulfur dioxide surrogate of DABCO⋅(SO 2 ) 2 , and potassium halide in the presence of copper(I) chloride (10 mol %) gives rise to β‐halo vinylsulfones with good stereoselectivity. The vicinal difunctionalization of alkynes through sulfonylation and halogenation with the insertion of sulfur dioxide works efficiently. A plausible mechanism is proposed, which includes a radical process.
