based on the anodic cyanation of (S)‐1‐(1‐phenylethyl)‐piperidine (–)‐1 to afford α‐aminonitrile 2 in 85 % yield in a 53:47 dr. The presence of the α‐phenylethyl group as the chiral auxiliary ensured the control of the absolute configuration of the future C6 spiro‐center during the alkylation step of 2, which was carried out with 1‐bromo‐4‐chlorobutane. Next, elaboration of the 1‐azaspiro[5,5]undecane‐7‐one
