Enantiomerically pure thiahelicenes displaying a terminal phosphole unit and a stereogenic phosphorus center have been prepared by oxidative photocyclization of a diaryl‐olefin precursor. Starting from one of these phosphathiahelicene oxides, the corresponding trivalent phosphine–Au I complex is obtained with complete diastereoselectivity. It affords a new, excellent precatalyst for the enantioselective cycloisomerization of N‐tethered enynes (up to 96 % ee ).
