A highly enantioselective synthesis of δ‐lactams having a chiral quaternary carbon center at the α‐position has been developed through an asymmetric alkylation of 3‐arylpiperidin‐2‐ones under phase‐transfer conditions. In this transformation, a 2,2‐diarylvinyl group on the δ‐lactam nitrogen atom plays a crucial role as a novel protecting group and an achiral auxiliary for improving both yield and enantioselectivity of the reaction.
