Aromatic N-heterocyclic compounds are very important chemicals, which currently produced mostly from petroleum. Here we report that a pyridazine-based compound 6-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)pyridazin-3(2H)-one (GSPZ) can be efficiently synthesized by the Friedel-Crafts reaction of guaiacol and succinic anhydride, both derived biomass. GSPZ is then treated with bio-based epichlorohydrin to prepare epoxy resin precursor GSPZ-EP. With 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane as curing agent, GSPZ-EP possesses higher glass transition temperature (187 oC vs. 173 oC) shows 140%, 70 93% increase in char yield (in N2), storage modulus (30 Young's modulus, respectively when compared standard petroleum-based bisphenol A resin. Moreover, cured good intrinsic flame retardancy properties close V-0 rating UL-94 test. This work opens door for production aromatic compounds, biomass employed construct high performance polymers.

The use of 3d metals in de/hydrogenation catalysis has emerged as a competitive field with respect to "traditional" precious metal catalyzed transformations. introduction functional pincer ligands that can store protons and/or electrons expressed by metal-ligand cooperativity and ligand redox-activity strongly stimulated this development conceptual starting point for rational catalyst design. This review aims at providing comprehensive picture the utilization first-row transition hydrogenation dehydrogenation related synthetic concepts relying on these such hydrogen borrowing methodology. Particular emphasis is put implementation relevance cooperating redox-active within mechanistic scenarios.
