An efficient enantioselective vinylogous aldol reaction of 3‐alkylidene oxindoles with α ‐ketoesters by a bifunctional thiourea catalyst derived from cinchona alkaloid has been disclosed here. The simultaneous H‐bond directing dual activation of vinylogous nucleophile and electrophile afforded high yield (upto 92%) while obtaining excellent stereocontrol (upto 99% ee).
