The clash of hybridizations : A tailored phase‐transfer organocatalyst merges sp 3 ‐ and sp 2 ‐hybridized carbon atoms by catalyzing the first enantioselective vinylic substitution (see scheme; EWG=electron‐withdrawing group). The method provides access to optically active compounds possessing vinyl‐substituted quaternary stereocenters with control of the alkene configuration.
