A method was developed to synthesize 1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′,7-triol by an oxidative cross coupling reaction of 2-hydroxy naphthalene and 2,7-dihydroxy naphthalene. A process was optimized to separate the enantiomers of this compound by making its complex with S-brucine; its absolute configuration was established and it was converted into a series of helicene-like mono 1,3-oxazines. The chiroptical properties of these molecules were investigated and it was established that the helicene-like structural element contributes more to the optical rotation as compared to the stereogenic center.

Synthesis of the title compound 7,12,17-trioxa[11]helicene, a large oxygen-containing helicene, has been reported. The 11-membered heterohelicene was synthesized by a combination of two simple reactions involving oxidative coupling and dehydrative cyclization. The final helicene was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, fluorescence spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetric analysis.

Novel chiral iron phosphate complexes were prepared as catalysts for asymmetric oxidative coupling reactions. These catalysts were applied for the synthesis of enantio-enriched C1- and C2-symmetric BINOLs, in which the 3 and 3′ positions are available for chemical modifications. It was proposed that the reaction takes place via an oxidative radical-anion coupling mechanism. A destructive BINOL racemization that competes with the enantioselective oxidative coupling of 2-naphthols was revealed, thereby offering new insights into this highly important reaction.
