On the road to hypervinylogy. On a dark cloudy day, lightning strikes a straight road at a distant point on the horizon. This scene represents how various aldehydes add at the most distant ω‐point of the polyene chain of 3‐polyalkenyl‐2‐oxindole nucleophiles through a catalytic, hypervinylogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction, as described by C. Curti, F. Zanardi et al. in their Full Paper on page 6433 ff.
