Silyl‐inspired spirocycle : The title reaction is the first example of a catalytic asymmetric [3+2] annulation reaction with allylsilanes. The annulation reaction utilizes a chiral ScCl 2 (SbF 6 )/L catalyst and TMSCl as a promoter to afford spirooxindoles in excellent enantioselectivity at room temperature. The SiC bond can be oxidized to deliver hydroxy‐substituted spirooxindoles. TMS=trimethylsilyl.
