An enantioconvergent intramolecular Nicholas reaction of racemic diols was developed using BINOL‐ and SPINOL‐derived phosphoric acids as the chiral Brønsted acid catalyst. The developed reaction features an efficient approach to the synthesis of seven‐membered cyclic ethers in a highly enantioselective manner. Further derivatization of the enantioenriched cyclic ethers, initiated by the de‐complexation
