High turnover : An highly efficient catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of δ‐aryl‐δ‐ketoesters has been realized by using the chiral spiroiridium catalyst ( R )‐ 1 . Chiral 1,5‐diol products are obtained with excellent enantioselectivity and turnover numbers (TONs) as high as 100 000. TOF=turnover frequency.
