A catalytic enantioselective construction of all‐carbon chiral quaternary centers through reductive hydroxymethylation of 1,1‐disubstituted allenes with CO 2 has been developed. In the presence of a copper/Mandyphos catalyst, CO 2 is transformed into an alcohol oxidation level by an asymmetric reductive C−C bond formation with allenes by using hydrosilane (HSi(OMe) 2 Me) as a reductant. The resulting chiral homoallylic alcohols are versatile synthetic intermediates and can be conveniently converted into a variety of useful chiral chemicals.
