1,2-Bifuctional thiocyanodiphenylphosphinoylation of alkenes is established through the phosphinoyl radical addition followed by Cu-catalyzed thiocyanation. This one-pot reaction is applicable to a range of aromatic, aliphatic, and cyclic alkenes to afford thiocyanodiphenylphosphinoylated compounds in satisfactory yields.
