Abstract
Abstract 8,8′-dimethyl-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (7) was synthesized by oxidative dimerization of 8-methyl-2-naphthol (6). Camphorsulfonyl chloride was used as a chiral-resolving agent, followed by the synthesis of chiral dimethyl dinaphthofuran 3 by a dehydration reaction between two hydroxy groups without loss of optical purity. The racemization barrier and optical properties of the chiral compound 3 were scrutinized.
