BINOLs are valuable and widely used building blocks, chiral ligands, and catalysts that are effective across a remarkable range of different chemical transformations. Here we demonstrate that an ammonium salt catalyzed kinetic resolution of racemic BINOLs with benzyl tosylate proceeds with s up to 46. This is a scalable and practical process that can be applied across >30 different C<sub>2</sub> - and non-C<sub>2</sub> -symmetric BINOLs. Implementation of this method enables the enantioselective ...[more]
