meso ‐Cyclopropyl carbaldehydes are treated in the presence of an organocatalyst with sulfenyl and selenyl chlorides to afford 1,3‐chlorochalcogenated products. The transformation is achieved by a merged iminium–enamine activation. The enantioselective desymmetrization reaction, leading to three adjacent stereocenters, furnished the target products in complete regioselectivity and moderate to high diastereo‐ and enantioselectivities (d.r. up to 15:1 and e.r. up to 93:7).
