Dirhodium metallopeptides have been developed as selective catalysts for asymmetric cyclopropanation reactions. A selective ligand sequence has been identified by screening on‐bead metallopeptide libraries in a 96‐well plate format. Efficient ligand synthesis and screening allows a 200‐member library to be created and assayed in less than three weeks. These metallopeptides catalyze efficient cyclopropanation of aryldiazoacetates, providing asymmetric access to cyclopropane products in high diastereoselectivity.
