Method for preparing electronic 2,2'-binaphthol

The invention discloses a method for preparing electronic 2,2'-binaphthol. The method comprises the following steps: under the action of a phase transfer catalyst and/or a surfactant, enabling 2-naphthol to react with a ferric trichloride solution and hydrogen peroxide, and finally performing reaction treatment with a water insoluble organic solvent, thereby obtaining an electron-grade product, namely 2,2'-binaphthol. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that (1) the method has the advantages of a small amount of wastes of a solid-phase method and reaction balance, easiness in operation and low equipment requirements of a liquid-phase method; (2) the reaction efficiency is high, and a small amount of ferric chloride is used; (3) a product yield is high, and the highest product yield is up to 95%; (4) the product purity is improved, and electron-grade high requirements of electronic chemicals on raw materials are met; (5) a good production environment can be made,the working intensity is low, a small amount of wastewater is generated, and wastewater with ferrous ions can be oxidized and recycled.

Chirality sensing of amines, diamines, amino acids, amino alcohols, and α-hydroxy acids with a single probe

A stereodynamic probe for determination of the absolute configuration and enantiomeric composition of chiral amines, diamines, amino alcohols, amino acids, and α-hydroxy carboxylic acids is described. The chirality sensing is based on spontaneous asymmetric transformation of the first kind with stereolabile binaphtholate boron and zinc complexes. The substrate binding and chiral amplification processes yield a distinctive chiroptical sensor output at high wavelength that can be used for rapid and accurate ee detection of minute sample amounts.

SnCl4-mediated oxidative biaryl coupling reaction of 1-naphthol and subsequent ring closure of 2,2′-binaphthol to the dinaphthofuran framework

A simple method for the direct synthesis of 2,2′-binaphthols 2 and dinaphtho[1,2-b;2′,1′-d]furans 3 under mild conditions was developed, utilizing a biaryl coupling reaction via electron donor-acceptor complexes of 1-naphthols with SnCl4. Heating of the complex in a sealed tube for (18-24 h) afforded the corresponding o-o coupled product 2 in excellent yield. Prolonged reaction (56-65 h) under the same conditions afforded 3 in high yield in one step. We also found that in the case of α-naphthol without substituents other than a hydroxyl group at the C-1 position, regioselective o-o coupling reaction proceeded. The products 2a, 2b and 2g should be useful as synthetic intermediates for naturally occurring 3,3′-bijuglone, 3,3′-biplumbagin and elliptinone.
