identifying substituent effects on enantioselectivity, was designed. The catalytic process allows rapid access to chiral thioesters, amides, aldehydes, and ketones bearing an α‐methyl stereocenter with excellent enantioselectivities, and allowed rapid access to the C4–C13 segment of (−)‐bistramide A. DFT calculations rationalized the observed sense and level of enantioselectivity.
