A weak carbonyl coordination-guided regioselective C4 allylation of indoles is demonstrated using the versatile Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct in the presence of Rh catalysts in a redox-neutral fashion. The substrate scope, functional group diversity, oxidant free character, mechanistic aspects, and synthetic utilities are important practical features.
