A simple and mild protocol for the copper-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling of alkenyl acids with P(O)H compounds was developed, thus providing a facile route to the vinylphosphorus compounds. Moreover, the reaction could also afford β-ketophosphorus compounds as the major products in air using oxygen as an oxidant. In addition, the remarkable features of these two types of reactions include excellent reaction chemoselectivity, good functional group tolerance and mild reaction conditions (e.g., cheap oxidant, ligand-free condition and room temperature).
