A convenient enantioselective route to new types of pentacyclic spirooxindoles via [3+3] annulation reactions of isatin‐derived enals and cyclic N‐sulfonyl ketimines, using N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis has been developed. The new protocol leads to pentacyclic spirooxindoles bearing a quaternary spiro‐stereocenter in good yields and good to high enantiomeric ratios.
