The α-regioselective conjugate addition of allyl groups to activated alkenes is a poorly explored area of research. Herein, we report an α-adduct and (E)-isomer selective conjugate addition of allylsilanes to activated alkenes by visible-light photoredox catalysis. The reaction involves allylic radicals that can be generated from allylsilanes through a photoinduced single-electron transfer mechanism. (Figure presented.).
