Phosphoric acids with planar chiral paracyclophane scaffolds have been prepared in optically pure form starting from 1,8-dibromobiphenylene, by means of a chiral phosphorodiamidate as the phosphorylating agent. Structural characterization and configurational assignment have been performed by X-ray diffraction studies. The acids promote the organocatalytic enantioselective H-transfer reduction of α-arylquinolines with up to 90% enantiomeric excess.
