Four new σ bonds and two chiral centers are formed in a novel three‐component, one‐pot [3+2] cycloannulation process, which gives pyrrolobenzoxazoles directly in good yields and with excellent diastereoselectivity (see scheme, TMS=trimethylsilyl). The products could be converted into proline derivatives with full stereochemical control. A chiral scandium complex catalyzed the formation of the products with up to 83 %  ee.
