A novel Pd-catalysed oxidative coupling reaction methodology using readily available carboxylic acids and alkenes for the preparation of vinyl esters has been developed. A broad range of vinyl esters were successfully synthesised. The reactions have demonstrated good efficiency as well as excellent chemo- and regio-selectivity.
