The enantioselective synthesis of an aza[10]helicene, possessing two pyridone units, has been achieved by the gold‐catalyzed intramolecular quadruple hydroarylation of a tetrayne. This aza[10]helicene was successfully converted into a fully aromatic aza[10]helicene, possessing two pyridine units. Structure–photophysical and chiroptical properties relationship in a series of azahelicene isomers has also been disclosed.
