The synthesis of α‐aminosilanes by a highly enantio‐ and regioselective copper‐catalyzed hydroamination of vinylsilanes is reported. The system employs Cu‐DTBM‐SEGPHOS as the catalyst, diethoxymethylsilane as the stoichiometric reductant, and O ‐benzoylhydroxylamines as the electrophilic nitrogen source. This hydroamination reaction is compatible with differentially substituted vinylsilanes, thus providing access to amino acid mimics and other valuable chiral organosilicon compounds.
