A practical sequence for the synthesis of optically active heteroaryl α‐(hydroxyamino) esters was explored. The highly diastereoselective addition of heteroaromatics to a cyclic chiral nitrone allowed access to a series of heteroaryl hydroxylamines. The scope of this reaction was evaluated on substrates possessing a pyrrole, an indole, or a furan core. The three‐step sequence afforded the α‐(hydroxyamino) esters in good overall yields (36–62 %) with good enantiomeric excess values (76 to ≥98 %).
