Abstract

A new synthetic route to 3,3'-dihalo BINAMs based on the direct halogenation of H8-BINAM and subsequent rearomatization to the binaphthyl core has been developed. The combination of this new procedure and Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions enabled us to synthesize various 3,3'-disubstituted BINAMs in only three steps starting from H8-BINAM.
