Application

(S)-VANOL is a vaulted biaryl ligand that may be used in the synthesis of coordinated complexes, such as (dppe)Pt(S-VANOL) [dppe= bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane] and (S,S-chiraphos)Pt(S-VANOL) [chiraphos= 2,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane].
VANOL has proven to be an excellent ligand in catalytic asymmetric Diels-Alder, imine aldol, and aziridination reactions.

[reaction: see text] In an effort to develop a synthesis of the VAPOL ligand that avoids the use of a chromium carbene complex, a route was examined that involved the annulation of a naphthalene carboxamide via the method of Snieckus.

Organic letters, 5(11), 1813-1816 (2003-05-24)
[reaction: see text] A copper-mediated deracemization of the vaulted biaryl ligands VANOL and VAPOL can be readily achieved in the presence of (-)-spartiene. The optimal procedure involves the in situ generation of copper(II) and leads to the reproducible formation of
