An efficient copper-catalyzed decarboxylative hydroboration of phenylpropiolic acids with bis(pinacolato)diboron was developed, affording β-vinylboronates as the only products in high yields. Extra hydrogen sources such as methanol are not needed in this catalytic system. This reaction could be performed successfully under ligand- and base-free conditions. It demonstrated that phenylpropiolic acids...
