Abstract

A process for producing a binaphthol bistriflate, 2,2′-bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy)-1,1′-binaphthyl, includes reacting 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol with trifluoromethanesulfonyl fluoride, in a polar solvent, in the presence of an organic base. The reaction proceeds quickly at a low temperature by using a polar solvent as the reaction solvent, while the reaction pressure does not become high. The polar solvent is preferably at least one selected from N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetoamide, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, and acetonitrile.
