A phase‐transfer‐catalyzed asymmetric Michael addition of (iminomethyl)phosphonates to α,β‐unsaturated ketones is described. In the presence of 1 mol‐% of a chiral dinuclear N ‐spiro ammonium salt, the addition reaction proceeded smoothly to afford the adducts in up to 97 % yield with up to 99:1 dr and 78 % ee . One of the products was readily converted into a cyclic α‐aminophosphonic acid derivative without any erosion of the enantiopurity.
