Three binaphthyl groups as “blades” have been joined together to give the propeller compound 1 . The synthesis of this compound proved surprisingly easy via reaction of a borane with optically active 1,1′‐bi‐2‐naphthol. Compound 1 is more than just “a cute molecule”; it also catalyzes a highly exo and enantioselective Diels–Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with methacrolein.
