Knoevenagel adducts derived from readily available acetoxyacetone and malonic acid derivatives served as trimethylenemethane surrogates for formal 1,3‐difunctionalization through a sequence of selective γ‐deprotonation/α‐alkylation and palladium(0)‐catalyzed allylic alkylation. Herein, we report the discovery and development of a three‐component 1,3‐difunctionalization of Knoevenagel adducts as well as a unique palladium(0)‐catalyzed branch‐selective allylic alkylation.
