A solution to the unmet synthetic challenge of achieving highly atropo-enantioselective transesterification of Bringmann's lactones has been realized, employing a chiral bifunctional amine thiourea as promoter. The synergistic activation of the lactones and alcohols/phenols by the respective thiourea and amine groups is crucial for achieving the highly enantioselective, high-yielding dynamic kinetic resolution process. This protocol gives highly optically pure, axially chiral biaryl compounds with a broad substrate scope under mild reaction conditions.
