Abstract

A cuprous halide catalysed carboxylation of alkenyl boronic acids and alkenyl boronic acid pinacol esters under CO2, affording the corresponding α, β‐unsaturated carboxylic acids in good yield, has been developed. The potassium (E)‐trifluoro(styryl)borate is also compatible with this reaction. This simple and efficient copper(I) catalytic system showed good functional group tolerance.
