A cascade oxidative difunctionalization reaction of alkynoates for the construction of trisubstituted olefins has been developed. The process undergoes alkylation of a C-C triple bond, 1,4-aryl migration, and decarboxylation, which demonstrates a multistep radical cascade reaction for the difunctionalization of alkynoates and also represents a strategy of direct decarboxylation of esters.
