  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The first stereoselective synthesis of enantioenriched axially chiral indole–quinoline systems is presented. The strategy takes advantage of an organocatalytic enantioselective Povarov cycloaddition of 3‐alkenylindoles and N‐arylimines, followed by an oxidative central‐to‐axial chirality conversion process, allowing for access to previously unreported axially chiral indole–quinoline biaryls. The methodology is also implemented for the design and the preparation of challenging compounds exhibiting two stereogenic axes. DFT calculations shed light on the stereoselectivity of the central‐to‐axial chirality conversion, showing unconventional behavior.</jats:p>
