Provided herein is 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-1,1′-spirobiindane-7,7′-diol, which is a compound represented by formula I, or an enantiomer or a raceme thereof. The 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-1,1′-spirobiindane-7,7′-diol is prepared with a 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-1,1′-spirobiindane-7,7′-dicarbaldehyde derivative as a starting material through a Baeyer-Villiger oxidation rearrangement reaction and an alkaline hydrolysis reaction. The 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-1,1′-spirobiindane-7,7′-diol comprises two gem-dimethyl groups and is a key intermediate for preparing corresponding 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-1,1′-spirobiindane-based monophosphine ligands, such as phosphonite ligands, phosphite ligands, phosphoramidite ester ligands, phosphoric acid and phsophonamidate. The 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-1,1′-spirobiindane-7,7′-diol skeleton provided herein could be used in chemical industry and has economic practicality and industrial application prospects.
