A general enantioselective organocatalytic conjugate addition procedure of a variety of malonates to alpha,beta-unsaturated enone systems is presented. The reaction is efficiently catalysed by the pyrrolidinyl tetrazole catalyst 1. Cyclic, acyclic and aromatic enones can be used and the reaction with ethyl malonates 3 b provides the Michaeladdition products in high yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities
