The synthesis of biobased aromatic polyesters from lignin-derived monomers has become well described in the literature, but robust extrusion, thermomechanical, tensile and degradation studies of these materials is lacking. In this work, we have systematically investigated the mechanical and biodegradation properties of semi-aromatic polyesters that can potentially be derived from lignin. AB monomers were synthesized from reduced analogues of coumaric, ferulic, and sinapic acids along with cyclic carbonates, where the synthetic methodology was assessed using E-Factor and EcoScale. Polymerization yielded both semi-crystalline and amorphous polyesters with mechanical properties varying over three orders of magnitude. Detailed characterization revealed a wide array of properties including a highly ductile thermoplastic, a strong and rigid thermoplastic, and an elastomer. Composting biodegradation tests showed both degradable and nondegradable polymers can be achieved in this class. This work demonstrates the versatility of this class of polymers and illustrates their potential to replace non-sustainably derived plastics. This journal is
Synthesis of Lactams via Ir-Catalyzed C-H Amidation Involving Ir-Nitrene Intermediates

x-membered lactams were synthesized via either an amidation of sp3 C-H bonds or an electrophilic substitution of arenes via Ir-nitrene intermediates. With the employment of a readily available iridium catalyst in dichloromethane or hexafluoro-2-propanol, a wide range of lactams were synthesized in good to excellent yields with high selectivity.
Transition Metal Free C-N Bond Forming Dearomatizations and Aryl C-H Aminations by in Situ Release of a Hydroxylamine-Based Aminating Agent

We outline a simple protocol that accesses directly unprotected secondary amines by intramolecular C-N bond forming dearomatization or aryl C-H amination. The method is dependent on the generation of a potent electrophilic aminating agent released by in situ deprotection of O-Ts activated N-Boc hydroxylamines.
