Amino‐substituted alkylidenecyclopentanes were synthesized through a stereoselective intermolecular Pd‐catalyzed alkene carboamination reaction between alkenyl triflates bearing a pendant alkene and exogenous amine nucleophiles. The reactions are effective with a range of different substrate combinations, and proceed with generally high diastereoselectivity. Use of ( S )‐ t BuPhox as the ligand in reactions of achiral substrates provides enantioenriched products with up to 98.5:1.5 e.r.
