Abstract
A strong organic base, TBD, functioned as a unique catalyst for the intramolecular multi-step transformation of lactols using the Ferrier-type rearrangement as the key step to provide unsymmetrically substituted 2,2’-dihydroxy biaryl compounds having four ortho substituents about the biaryl axis without the need for a metal catalyst.
