The first catalytic asymmetric inverse electron demand 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine imines with enecarbamates has been developed. Isoquinoline-fused pyrazolidines containing two or three contiguous stereogenic centers were obtained in high yields with excellent regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivities. The pyrazolidine ring can be opened to install an aminal, α-amino nitrile, or homoallylamine function with an excellent control of the newly generated stereogenic center. Access to aminobenzo[a]quinolizidine is also documented.
