PG - 5476-5479 AB - Different catalysts are demonstrated to overcome or augment a substrate's innate regioselectivity. Nagasawa's bis-thiourea catalyst was found to overcome the innate para-selectivity of electrophilic phenol chlorination, yielding ortho-chlorinated phenols that are not readily obtainable via canonical electrophilic chlorinations. Conversely, a phosphine sulfide derived from 2,2'-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl (BINAP) was found to enhance the innate para-preference of phenol chlorination.
