Transformative Masked Ortho-Quinone Chemistry: From Direct Guaiacol Activation to Lignin-Based Adhesives. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglRenewable guaiacols are rapidly oxidized by phenyliodine(III)diacetate to masked ortho‐quinones, giving a new class of monomers that undergo selective Michael‐type polyaddition with multithiols to from thiol‐guaiacol connectivity‐bearing polymers. The activation applies to discrete monomers and directly to lignin, enabling two‐component adhesives that ...
