Abstractmagnified imageMetal‐catalysed hydroformylation is successfully combined with an organocatalysed stereoselective Mannich reaction in a tandem reaction sequence. This novel type of “tandem catalysis” allows access to complex molecular systems with high levels of enantioselectivity, using simple starting materials and an amino acid as the chiral catalyst.
