Ve ´ronique Blandin, [a] Jean-Franc ¸ois Carpentier,* [a] and Andre ´Mortreux [a] Keywords: Asymmetric synthesis / Hydrogenations / Ketones / Chiral α-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactones / Chiral α-hydroxy-γoxo esters 2,4-Dioxoesters 1a-c are selectively converted into optically hydroxy-4-butyrolactones 4a-c proceeds in high yields; catalytic activities, chemo-, dia-, and enantioselectivities are active 2-hydroxy-4-oxoesters 2a-c by hydrogenation with chiral rhodium-aminophosphane-phosphinite catalysts (82-strongly dependant upon the nature of the substrate and the catalyst. 88% ee) or ruthenium-bisphosphane catalysts (52-67% ee). Direct one-pot hydrogenation of 2,4-dioxoesters 1a-c to 2- [a]

## Abstract The synthesis and the liquid‐crystal temperatures of sixty 4‐cyano‐2‐fluorophenyl and 4‐cyano‐3‐fluorophylen 4‐substituted benzoates are described. The nematic‐isotropic liquid transition temperatures of the most of these novel esters are only marginally lower than those of the correspo
