Starting from symmetric bis‐ ortho ‐alkenyl‐substituted aniline 11 and unsymmetric bis‐alkenyl‐substituted aminonaphthalene 12 , imidazolinium salt 17 has been prepared. Salt 17 was cyclized by ring‐closing metathesis, and hydrogenation gave axially chiral N‐heterocyclic carbene precursor 19 . The configurational stability of 19 was proven by temperature‐dependent NMR studies and also by the use of Λ‐BINPHAT as a chiral shift reagent. Compound 19 was also characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.
