A novel palladium(II)‐catalyzed cyclization of aniline‐tethered alkynyl cyclohexadienones is reported. This reaction offers an atom‐economical and redox‐neutral access to various cyclohexenone‐fused tetrahydropyrano[3,4‐ b ]indoles with high yield and excellent enantioselectivity. Remarkably, this work represents the first example on a transition‐metal‐catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular aminopalladation/1,4 addition sequence.
