A protocol for the anti‐Markovnikov hydrofunctionalization of alkenes has been developed by the use of a benzyl group as a traceless redox‐active hydrogen donor. Under copper catalysis and in the presence of CF 3 ‐ or N 3 ‐containing hypervalent iodine reagents, a series of homoallylic alcohol derivatives were hydrofunctionalized regioselectivity. A similar principle was also applied to the hydrofunctionalization of alkenols.
