Facile and modular access to stereodefined disubstituted aldehyde‐derived silyl enol ethers allowed their successful application in a stereoselective aldol reaction affording the products with excellent yields and diastereomeric ratios. The counter‐intuitive stereochemical behavior of this Mukaiyama‐aldol reaction is accounted for by a non‐classical open transition state.
