A fast and highly enantioselective brominative dearomatization of naphthols catalyzed by diphenylamine‐linked bis(oxazoline)‐Cu(OTf)2 complexes has been developed. The corresponding products of chiral naphthalenones bearing a Br‐containing tetrasubstituted stereogenic center could be obtained with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 95% ee) in excellent yields (up to 97% yield) within short reaction times. magnified image
