(S)-(−)-1,1′-Bi(2-naphthol), 1 X 1 g (246956-1G)

(S)-BINOL ligand in combination with titanium(IV) isopropoxide, forms (S)-(-)-BINOL-Ti complex, which is an effective chiral catalyst for: •asymmetric addition of alkynylzinc to unactivated ketones •enantioselective ring-opening reaction of meso-stilbene oxide and cyclohexene oxide with anilines •asymmetric aryl transfers from triaryl(tetrahydrofuran)aluminum reagents to a wide variety of ketones It can also react with zirconium(IV) isopropoxide isopropanol complex to form a chiral Lewis acid catalyst for the facile enantioselective allylation of aldehydes by allyltributyltin.
