Carboxylic acids are cheap, readily available, easy to store and handle compounds. Since the studies of decarboxylative Heck reaction of aryl carboxylic acids, transition metal-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling reactions have become an interesting research area. Transition metal-catalyzed alkyl coupling plays an important role in the synthesis of nonplanar molecule. Thus, much attention has been paid to the development of transition metal-catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling reactions of alkyl carboxylic acids. This review focuses on: (1) the copper-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling reaction between proline derivatives and nucleophilies including terminal alkynes (Csp3—Csp), indoles (Csp3—Csp2) and nitromethane (Csp3—Csp2), the copper-catalyzed decarboxylative aldol reaction of thioester derivatives, the copper-catalyzed decarboxylative Mannich-type reaction; the copper-catalyzed decarboxylative alkynylation of quaternary α-cyano acetate salts; (2) the palladium-caytalyzed decarboxylative couplings of 2-(2-azaaryl)acetates, cyanoacetate, salts, nitrophenyl acetates salts with aryl halides; (3) the silver-catalyzed decarboxylative chlorination, fluorination and alkynylation.

Key words: transition metals, decarboxylative coupling, alkyl carboxylic acid, advance
