Asymmetric synthesis of organofluorine compounds is an important issue in pharmaceutical chemistry1 and optoelectronic material science. 2 In particular, asymmetric catalysis of carbon-carbon bond forming reactions is the most attractive method, because the carbon skeleton of chiral organofluorine molecules can be constructed at the time of asymmetric induction. 3 The Friedel-Crafts (FC) reaction is one of the most fundamental carbon- ...
