“Smart” self‐assembly of several chiral diols and an achiral pre‐catalyst results in the formation of a highly enantioselective catalyst for the carbonyl–ene reaction (a). The assembly is not influenced by the order of addition of the components and always results in the exclusive formation of a single catalyst, as shown by NMR spectroscopy studies.
