The first organocatalytic asymmetric inverse‐electron‐demand Diels–Alder reaction of deconjugated enones by using a linear dienamine was explored. Electron‐poor oxadienes having a cyano group were found to be suitable in this reaction. With a 20 mol‐% loading of a quinine‐derived primary amine catalyst, high yields and excellent enantioselectivities were attained for a variety of 2,4‐stereogenic 3,4‐dihydropyran products under mild reaction conditions.
