Xanthene derivatives have broad applications in medicines, fluorescent probes, dyes, food additives, etc. Therefore, much attention was focused on developing the synthetic methods to prepare these compounds. Binaphthyl-based xanthene derivatives were prepared through the oxidation of BINOLs promoted by the hypervalent iodine reagent iodosylbenzene (PhIO). Nine-membered lactones were obtained through a similar oxidative reaction when iodoxybenzene (PhIO2) was used. Additionally, one-pot reactions of BINOLs, PhIO and nucleophiles such as alcohols and amines were also investigated to provide alkoxylated products and amides in good to excellent yields.

An enantioselective oxidative coupling of 2-naphthol derivatives is developed with the use of chiral Fe(ii)-diphosphine oxide complexes. Optically active 1,1-bi-2-naphthol derivatives can be synthesized in high yields when a 2?:?1 complex of (S)-xylyl-iPrO-BIPHEP-oxide and Fe(OTf)2 is used in the presence of t-butyl hydroperoxide as an oxidant. The non-linear effect, X-ray crystal structure and ESI-MS suggest that a 2?:?1 complex of (S)-xylyl-iPrO-BIPHEP-oxide and Fe(OTf)2 is a pre-catalyst for a Fe(iii)/Fe(iv) redox cycle.

The evolution of a more reactive chiral vanadium catalyst for enantioselective oxidative coupling of phenols is reported, ultimately resulting in a simple monomeric vanadium species combined with a Br?nsted or Lewis acid additive. The resultant vanadium complex is found to effect the asymmetric oxidative ortho-ortho coupling of simple phenols and 2-hydroxycarbazoles with good to excellent levels of enantioselectivity. Experimental and quantum mechanical studies of the mechanism indicate that the additives aggregate the vanadium monomers. In addition, a singlet to triplet crossover is implicated prior to carbon-carbon bond formation. The two lowest energy diastereomeric transition states leading to the enantiomeric products differ substantially with the path to the minor enantiomer involving greater torsional strain between the two phenol moieties.
