A highly enantioselective intramolecular N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC)‐catalyzed hydroacylation reaction gives access to a range of cyclic ketones from unactivated olefin‐substituted aldehydes (up to 99 % ee ). Remarkably, aliphatic aldehydes were also transformed efficiently in an NHC‐catalyzed hydroacylation reaction for the first time.
