Intramolecular enantioselective alkylation of N ‐alkenylindoles proceeded via CH bond cleavage at the C‐2 position in the presence of a cationic iridium catalyst with a diphosphine ligand. Aroyl groups at the C‐3 position of the indoles operated as effective directing groups, and chiral 1‐substituted‐2,3‐dihydro‐1 H ‐pyrrolo[1,2‐ a ]indoles were obtained in high yield with excellent ee .
