## Abstract An enantioselective synthesis of the chiral bisnaphthopyrone natural product nigerone and its enantiomer, __ent__βnigerone, has been realized. The use of constrained 2βnaphthol substrates was critical to producing highly functionalized chiral 1,1β²βbinaphthols __via__ asymmetric oxidativ
