Binaphthol-Titanium Complex-Catalyzed Fluoral-Ene Reaction with Vinyl Sulfides for Asymmetric Synthesis of Diastereomeric α-Trifluoromethyl-β-methyl Carbinols: Diastereomer Switch of Antiferroelectric or Ferroelectric Properties of Diastereomeric Liquid-Crystalline Systems1

Abstract
We synthesized a new type of antiferroelectric and ferroelectric liquid-crystalline molecules with double stereogenic centers based on the binaphthol-titanium complex-catalyzed fluoral-ene reaction with vinyl sulfides. Furthermore, we experimentally showed the importance of the diastereomer effect for the appearance of the antiferroelectric SmCA* phase.
