Static and dynamic stereochemistry of the hydrocarbon comprising a phenyl ring bearing two a-naphthyl substituents in the ortho positions, i.e., 1,2-di-(4-methyl-naphth-1-yl)-benzene 1, has been studied by a combination of variable temperature NMR, cryogenic HPLC, and MM calculations. Whereas in solution both syn (meso) and anti (chiral) forms were observed and the corresponding interconversion barrier was determined (DeltaG(double dagger) = 19.5 kcal mol(-1)), only the diastereoisomer anti was found to be present in the crystalline state (X-ray diffraction). When the molecule is rendered asymmetric by introduction of a nitro group in the phenyl ring as in 1,2-di-(4-methyl-naphth-1-yl)-4-nitrobenzene 2, the chiral syn and anti diastereoisomers are simultaneously present both in solution and in the solid state, albeit in different proportions. Cryogenic chromatography on a HPLC chiral stationary phase at -20 degreesC allowed the stereolabile diastereoisomers and the corresponding enantiomers to be separated.
