| Abstract: | An enantioselective 3+2] cycloaddition of vinyl cyclopropane derived from 1,3‐indanedione with nitroalkenes catalyzed by palladium(0) with a chiral bis(tert‐amine) ligand was developed in high yields with good diastereoselectivities and excellent enantioselectivities. The resulting bis(tert‐amine)–palladium complex proved to be a highly efficient catalyst for this cycloaddition. |
