Using palladium-catalyzed double N-arylation strategy, 2,2'-di(carbazol-9-yl)- 1,1'-binaphthyl [(S)-1a] has been successfully synthesized. Upon photo-irradiation, electron transfer from the carbazole ring to the naphthalene ring took place in compound (S)-1a to induce an excimer formation, as was evidenced by circular dichroism (CD) and circular polarized luminescence (CPL) measurement.
