Usage

Uses

Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
BINAPO is utilized as a chiral ligand in the asymmetric catalysis process for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure pharmaceutical compounds. Its ability to form stable complexes with transition metals aids in the production of single-enantiomer drugs, which is crucial for ensuring the desired therapeutic effects and minimizing potential side effects.
Used in Agrochemical Industry:
In the agrochemical sector, BINAPO is employed as a chiral ligand for asymmetric catalysis in the synthesis of enantiomerically pure active ingredients for pesticides and herbicides. This ensures that the agrochemicals are both effective and environmentally friendly by targeting specific pests while minimizing harm to non-target organisms.
Used in Fine Chemicals Industry:
BINAPO is also used as a chiral ligand in the synthesis of fine chemicals, which are high-purity chemicals used in various applications such as fragrances, flavors, dyes, and specialty materials. Its role in asymmetric catalysis helps to produce enantiomerically pure fine chemicals, which are essential for maintaining the desired properties and performance of these high-value products.

Photocatalyzed E→Z Contra-thermodynamic Isomerization of Vinyl Boronates with Binaphthol

The photocatalytic contra-thermodynamic E→Z isomerization of vinyl boronates by using a binaphthol catalyst is disclosed. The reaction, based on the transient formation of a suitable chromophore with a BINOL derivative as the catalyst, allowed geometrical isomerization in good-to-excellent Z/E ratio and excellent-to-quantitative yields. The mechanism of this E→Z contra-thermodynamic isomerization was studied, and the formation of a transient chromophore species is suggested.

Rapid synthesis of 3,3′ bis-arylated BINOL derivatives using a C-H borylation in situ suzuki-miyaura coupling sequence

The increased interest in BINOL derived catalysts for asymmetric transformations has encouraged us to disclose a rapid and scalable method of preparing 3,3′ bis-arylated BINOL derivatives 1 using a one-pot CH borylation/Suzuki-Miyaura coupling sequence. T

Diastereomeric resolution of rac -1,1′-bi-2-naphthol boronic acid with a chiral boron ligand and its application to simultaneous synthesis of (R)- and (S)-3,3′-disubstituted 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol derivatives

A new concept of diastereomeric resolution has been developed where a boronic acid functionality was employed as (1) a diastereomeric resolving group with a chiral boron ligand and (2) a masked functional group for further transformation thereafter. This new diastereomeric resolution method was successfully applied to the preparation of both (R)- and (S)-3,3′- disubstituted 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL) derivatives in a step-ecomonical manner. Racemic BINOL boronic acid reacted with a commercially available pinene-derived iminodiacetic acid as a chiral boron ligand to generate the two diastereomers in quantitative yields over a gram-scale quantity. After the removal of the chiral boron ligand from the diastereomers under mild conditions, the subsequent Suzuki coupling reaction of the resulting chiral BINOL boronic acids with aryl halides provided a series of both (R)- and (S)-BINOL derivatives in good yields. Further, both resulting diastereomers could be directly applied to the Suzuki coupling reaction without the removal of the chiral ligand.

Chiral Bronsted acid catalyzed enantioselective Mannich-type reaction

Mannich-type reaction of ketene silyl acetals with aldimines proceeded catalytically by means of a phosphoric acid diester, derived from (R)-BINOL, as a chiral Bronsted acid to afford β-amino esters with good diastereoselectivity in favor of the syn isomer and high enantioselectivity (up to 96% ee). The highest enantioselectivity was achieved by the phosphoric acid diester bearing 4-nitrophenyl groups on the 3,3′-positions of BINOL. The N-2-hydroxyphenyl group of aldimine was found to be essential for the present Mannich-type reaction. In combination with these experimental investigations, two possible monocoordination and dicoordination pathways were explored using density functional theory calculations (BHandHLYP/6-31G*). The present reaction proceeds via a dicoordination pathway through the zwitterionic and nine-membered cyclic transition state (TS) consisting of the aldimine and the phosphoric acid. The re-facial selectivity was also well-rationalized theoretically. The nine-membered cyclic structure and aromatic stacking interaction between the 4-nitrophenyl group and N-aryl group would fix the geometry of aldimine on the transition state, and the si-facial attacking TS is less favored by the steric hindrance of the 3,3′-aryl substituents.
