Trying to add filetype to autocmd produces error

This is what I'm trying to do, toggle a plugin based on file type 

au FileType lisp,clojure,scheme VimEnter * RainbowParenthesesToggle

produces error:

Error detected while processing FileType Auto commands for "clojure":                                                                                                                  
E492: Not an editor command: VimEnter * RainbowParenthesesToggle                                                                                                                       
E492: Not an editor command: VimEnter * RainbowParenthesesToggle                                                                                                                       
E492: Not an editor command: VimEnter * RainbowParenthesesToggle                                                                                                                       
E492: Not an editor command: VimEnter * RainbowParenthesesToggle

Where is the error here?

Drop the VimEnter *.

Each autocmd should have a single event and pattern, but you specified two of each in yours. The FileType event makes sense for this command, so keep that one.

This should work:

au FileType lisp,clojure,scheme RainbowParenthesesToggle
