Abstract: Compared with the parent 1,1-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL), its dimethyl ether is highly resistant towards racemization under moderate acidic conditions. This finding confirms the hypothetical mechanism of BINOL atropisomerization including internal rotation around the C1sp3 –C1'sp3 bond in its protonatedforms.
