Triynes having a phenylene‐bridged 1,5‐diyne moiety were transformed into substituted tetraphenylenes by the title sequence. A cationic Rh–ligand species catalyzed this highly enantioselective reaction. This protocol is a new and easy approach to the construction of the tetraphenylene skeleton and enables an efficient asymmetric synthesis (see scheme; R=H; Z=NTs, C(CO 2 Me) 2 , O).
