A chiral Ca catalyst based on CaCl 2 with a chiral ligand was developed and applied to the asymmetric 1,4‐addition of 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds to nitroalkenes as a model system. To address product inhibition issues, the Ca catalyst was applied to continuous flow with a chiral heterogeneous catalyst. The continuous flow system using a newly synthesized, polymer‐supported Pybox was successfully employed, and the TON was improved 25‐fold compared with those of the previous Ca(OR) 2 catalysts.
