The dichloromethane layer was washed twice with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate followed by evaporation of the solvent. The residue thus obtained was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using ethyl acetate/hexane (1:4) as eluent. Evaporation of the solvent yielded 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (265 mg, 92%). Similarly other substituted 2-naphthols were oxidized using this procedure and their reaction times and yields are given in the Table. The products were identified by comparing their physical and spectral data with those of authentic compounds reported in literature.
