Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) reaction was developed. By massspectrometric back‐reactionscreening of quasi‐enantiomeric MBH products, an efficient bifunctional phosphine catalyst was identified that outperforms literature‐known catalysts in the MBH reaction of methyl acrylate with aldehydes. The close match between the selectivities measured for the forward and back reaction and kinetic measurements provided
