A practical one-pot synthesis of chiral alcohols from readily available alkynes <i>via</i> tandem catalysis by the combination of CF<sub>3</sub>SO<sub>3</sub>H and a fluorinated chiral diamine Ru(ii) complex in aqueous CF<sub>3</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>OH is described. Very interestingly, the combination of fluorinated catalysts and solvent exhibits a positive fluorine effect on the reactivity and enantioselectivity. A range of chiral alcohols with wide functional group tolerance was obtained in high ...[more]
