|Section2= }} 1,1'-Bi-2-naphthol (BINOL) is an organic compound that is often used as a ligand for transition-metal catalysed asymmetric synthesis. BINOL has axial chirality and the two enantiomers can be readily separated and are stable toward racemisation. The specific rotation of the two enantiomers is +/- 35.5° (c=1 in THF). BINOL is a precursor for another chiral ligand called BINAP. ==Preparation== The organic synthesis of BINOL is not a challenge as such but the preparation of the individual enantiomers is. (''S'')-BINOL can be prepared directly from an asymmetric oxidative coupling of 2-naphthol with copper(II) chloride. The chiral ligand in this reaction is (''S'')-(+)-amphetamine.〔 〕 Racemic BINOL can also be produced using iron(III) chloride as an oxidant. The mechanism involves complexation of iron(III) into the hydroxyl, followed by a radical coupling reaction of the naphthol rings initiated by iron(III) reducing into iron(II). Optically active BINOL can also be obtained from racemic BINOL by optical resolution. In one method, the alkaloid N-benzylcinchonidinium chloride form a crystalline inclusion compound. The inclusion compound of the ''S''-enantiomer is soluble in acetonitrile but that of the ''R''-enantiomer is not.〔("RESOLUTION OF 1,1'-BI-2-NAPHTHOL" ), Dongwei Cai, David L. Hughes, Thomas R. Verhoeven, and Paul J. Reider, in Organic Syntheses Coll. Vol. 10, p.93; Vol. 76, p.1〕 In another method BINOL is reacted with the acid chloride pentanoyl chloride to obtain the di-ester compound. The enzyme cholesterol esterase is then added in the form of bovine pancreas acetone powder which is able to hydrolyse the (''S'')-di-ester but not the (''R'')-di-ester.〔 The (''R'')-dipentanoate is hydrolysed in a second step with sodium methoxide.〔("(S)-(−)- AND (R)-(+)-1,1'-BI-2-NAPHTHOL" ), Romas J. Kazlauskas in Organic Syntheses, Coll.
