A counterion-controlled reactivity tuning in Pd-catalyzed highly chemoselective and regioselective dimerization and hydration of terminalalkynes is reported. The use of acetate as counterion favors the formation of an alkenyl alkynyl palladium intermediate which forms hitherto less reported 1,3-diaryl-substituted conjugated enynes after reductive elimination. Using chloride, which is a better leaving
