A C−N bond forming dearomatization protocol with broad scope is outlined. Specifically, bifunctional amino reagents are used for sequential nucleophilic and electrophilic C−N bond formations, with the latter effecting the key dearomatization step. Using this approach, γ‐arylated alcohols are converted to a wide range of differentially protected spirocyclic pyrrolidines in just two or three steps.
