Reversal Circularly Polarized Luminescence of AIE‐Active Chiral Binaphthyl Molecules from Solution to Aggregation

Four aggregation‐induced emission (AIE)‐active chiral binaphthyl‐based molecules, (R/S)‐ 1 and (R/S)‐ 2 , were designed and synthesized. Interestingly, all of them can exhibit reversal circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) signals from solution to aggregation, which could be attributed to the different dihedral angle of binaphthyl units from cis‐conformation in pure THF solution to trans‐conformation in THF/water mixtures.

Oxidative coupling polymerization of 2,3‐dihydroxynaphthalene with dinuclear‐type copper(II) catalyst

The oxidative coupling polymerization of 2,3‐dihydroxynaphthalene with the novel dinuclear‐type copper(II) catalysts successfully produced poly(2,3‐dihydroxy‐1,4‐naphthylene). For example, the MeOH‐insoluble polymer with a number average molecular weight of 4.4 × 10³ from the polymerization using the complex of CuCl₂ and N,N′‐bis(2‐morpholinoethyl)‐p‐xylylenediamine ( p ‐ 1 ) at room temperature under an O₂ atmosphere followed by acetylation of the hydroxyl groups was obtained in 63% yield. The structures of the tetraamine ligands and the counter anion of the copper(II) salts significantly influenced the catalyst activity. The polymerization of 2,2′‐dimethoxy‐1,1′‐binaphthalene‐3,3′‐diol with the 2CuCl₂‐ p ‐ 1 catalyst, however, resulted in a lower yield. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

First access to the spin-labelled β-amino acid POAC in an enantiopure state by resolution through its binaphthyl esters

Resolution of trans 3-(9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonylamino)-1-oxyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidine-4-carboxylic acid (Fmoc-POAC-OH) was quickly achieved upon esterification with (aR)-1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-diol, chromatographic separation of the obtained diastereomers, and facile saponification of the aryl ester function with removal of the chiral auxiliary.     

Ti(IV)/BINOL-catalyzed asymmetric aldol reaction of a masked acetoacetic ester: pronounced influence of catalyst concentration on nonlinear effects

Initial concentration of enantioenriched or enantiopure catalysts proved to be an important factor for the achievement of a more pronounced amplification of ee's in the Ti(IV)/BINOL-catalyzed aldol reaction of an O-silyldienolate.     

Proton NMR assignments for R,S-1,1'-binaphthol (BN) and R,S-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diyl hydrogen phosphate (BNDHP) interacting with bile salt micelles

We report proton chemical shifts for two model chiral analytes that are commonly used in the study of micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC), R,S-1,1'-binaphthol (1, BN) and R,S-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diyl hydrogen phosphate (2, BNDHP), in the absence and presence of monomers and micelles of sodium cholate and sodium deoxycholate. The analytes undergo fast exchange in and out of the micelles, which perturbs the analytes' chemical shifts, and which we use to resolve some resonances that are degenerate at both 300 and 600 MHz. Although BN and BNDHP are simple molecules, the proton assignments are only unambiguously established with the aid of the exchange with micelles, an attractive alternative to other methodologies such as the use of paramagnetic shift reagents which may also cause spectral distortions. We rely also upon 2D-NOE spectra of samples in the presence of micelles to perform these assignments. Recently published assignments, which were based upon 2D-COSY spectroscopy, appear to be in error and are corrected here. Finally, we note that these shifts are information-rich reporters on the nature of the interactions of these model analytes with the micelles.     

A New Easy Access to Enantiomerically Pure 2,2'-Dihydroxy-1,1'-Binaphthyl

Optically pure binaphthyl structures make up the most important family of auxiliaries, ligands and catalysts used in enantioselective reactions. Syntheses of 2,2'-disubstituted-1,1'-binaphtyl derivatives were carried out one pot in water by oxidative coupling with FeCl₃ in the presence of - and -cyclodextrin (CD) derivatives. A new efficient and inexpensive preparation of trihydroxyethyl- and tri-2-hydroxypropyl- - and -CD afforded these powerful solubilizing agents. The resolution of racemic 2,2'-dihydroxy-1,1'-binaphthyl was easily achieved by semipreparative HPLC separating diastereomers obtained from the reaction with (-)menthyl chloroformate. Final basic hydrolysis afforded the enantiomerically pure product.
