TY - JOUR AU - Hashimoto, Harukichi AB - The copper-promoted Ullmann reaction of the title diester proceeded with high stereoselectivity to give 24-membered optically pure cyclic dimer of (S,S,S,S)-configuration as well as 12-membered monomeric cycle of (S,S)-configuration. The reaction also gave reduced, open-chain dimer enriched in (S,R,S)-diastereomer over (S,S,S)-counterpart (17% d.e.). Stereochemical course to the cyclic dimer was discussed considering the result that the intermolecular Ullmann coupling of chiral alcohol esters of 1-bromo-2-naphthoic acid poorly induced axial chirality in the joining of the two naphthyl units.
