High enantioselectivity was achieved for the hydrogenation of azaindoles by using the chiral catalyst, which was prepared from [Ru(η 3 ‐methallyl) 2 (cod)] and a trans ‐chelating bis(phosphine) ligand (PhTRAP). The dearomative reaction exclusively occurred on the five‐membered ring, thus giving the corresponding azaindolines with up to 97:3 enantiomer ratio.
