A novel one-pot conversion of 2-naphthols into 1,1′-binaphthalene-2,2′-diols

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919608004572

A simple two-step, one-pot procedure based on the treatment of sodium 2-naphthoxide with bromine yields 1,1′-binaphthalene-2,2′-diol in a high yield and an excellent purity. The procedure is applicable also to preparation of the symmetrically disubstituted analogues.
