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.
