Chiral imidate–phosphanes were developed as a new type of N,P ligands. These ligands are easily accessible through a one‐step procedure starting from a commercially available chiral aminophosphane and an imidate precursor. Excellent performance of the catalyst system was observed with various carbon nucleophiles in the Pd 0 ‐catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation (up to 99 % yield and >99 %  ee ). Moreover, good to excellent enantioselectivities could also be obtained in the allylic alkylation of more difficult linear unhindered substrates and cyclic substrates, demonstrating that this new catalyst system has a broad substrate scope.
