Photo Racemization and Polymerization of (R)-1,1′-Bi(2-naphthol)
(R)-1,1’-Bi(2-naphthol) ((R)-BINOL) in an acetonitrile solution lost optical activity upon irradiation with an Hg–Xe lamp. HPLC resolution of the product indicated that (R)-BINOL was racemized upon irradiation, and SEC analysis suggested that a polymeric product was formed in the course of racemizat...
