A conceptually new approach affords optically active α‐fluoroketones 3 in high yields with up to 99 % ee from racemic α‐fluoro‐β‐ketoesters 1 in the presence of a chiral phosphinooxazoline ligand 2 . The palladium‐catalyzed decarboxylation/allylation reaction also allows the highly enantioselective construction of an all‐carbon quaternary center. dba=dibenzylideneacetone.
