Give me five! An organocatalyzed two‐component domino reaction has been developed in which two new CC bonds and five stereocenters are created in a one‐pot fashion (see scheme; DABCO=1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, TMS=trimethylsilyl). The striking features of this transformation are the high preference for one diastereomer (out of 32 possible isomers) and enantioselectivities of up to 94 %.
