The direct approach : Ruthenium(0)‐catalyzed hydrohydroxyalkylation of α‐olefins and styrenes with 3‐hydroxy‐2‐oxindoles forms branched products of CC coupling with high levels of diastereocontrol. A mechanism involving diene–olefin oxidative coupling and a subsequent carboxylic acid co‐catalyzed transfer hydrogenolysis of the resulting oxaruthenacycle intermediate is postulated.
