An alternative synthesis of cycloalkyl‐substituted CPA catalysts is reported. A Negishi coupling offers improved yields and purity of the necessary 1,3,5‐tri(cycloalkyl)benzenes. Limitations in the use of commercial organozinc reagents have been identified and a robust procedure for the preparation of these reagents is detailed. Similarly, a robust procedure for the key Kumada coupling is also provided. The route is demonstrated by preparation of three different tri(cycloalkyl)aryl‐substituted CPAs and the utility of these catalysts in asymmetric protonation reactions is shown.
