[reaction: see text] Herein we report regioselective substitution reactions of a series of 2- and 3-hydroxybiaryls including BINOL via a new directed ortho-metalation procedure. O-Aryl N-isopropylcarbamates, conveniently prepared from phenols and isopropyl isocyanate, are temporarily and in situ N-protected by
