“…38 It is noteworthy that various biorenewable polyesters with alternating aromatic/aliphatic units bearing ether-linkages have been developed by Miller and coworkers. [39][40][41] They indicated that the thermal properties of the biobased polymers are readily tuneable because of an adequate combination of so and hard segments in the main chain. In particular, the use of ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid as aromatic components contributed to improvements in glass transition temperature (T g ).…”

“…Polyesters made from terephthalic acid and aliphatic diols such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) constitute a class of versatile engineering plastics . Because we have succeeded the development of terephthalates showing efficient solid‐state blue fluorescence, we envisioned that polyesters consisting of dialkyl 2,5‐dialkoxyterephthalate framework could be efficient blue fluorescent polymers in the neat films . Because we observed that the quantum yields of 2 ba were higher than those of 2 aa (Table ), we chose an isopropoxy group as the alkoxy group.…”

We prepared dimethyl and diaryl 2,5-dialkoxyterephthalates from dimethyl 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalate in good-to-high yields via alkylation or as equence of alkylation, hydrolysis, chlorination, and condensation. The absorption spectra of the dialkoxyterephthalates contain as mall band at 332-355nm, which could be assigned to intramolecular charge-transfert ransition from the alkoxy to alkoxycarbonyl groups on the basis of theoretical calculations using density functional theory.T he dialkoxyterephthalates exhibited blue fluorescencew ith moderate-to-excellent quantum yields not only in solution but also in the solid state, such as ap oly(methylm ethacrylate) (PMMA) film and ap owder.T he solid-state quantum yields of the diisopropoxy-substituted terephthalates were similaro rc onsiderably higher than those of the dimethoxy-substituted counterparts.

“…Various natural, eco-friendly chemical structures have been produced and used after several modifications of their chemical function to access sustainable and eco-friendly polymers. These include vanillin [29] or bio-succinic acid [30] for semi-aromatic polyesters, lignins for phenolic oligomers [31], epoxidized castor oils for thermosetting architectures [32], catechol-based moieties for highly adhesive polymers [33], biodegradable copolymers from SO2, renewable eugenol for biodegradable materials [34] or cashew nut shell liquid for various systems [35].…”

The development of high-performance bio-based polyimides (PIs) seems a difficult task due to the incompatibility between petrochemical-derived, aromatic monomers and renewable, natural resources. Moreover, their production usually implies less eco-friendly experimental conditions, especially in terms of solvents and thermal conditions. In this chapter, we touch some of the most significant research endeavors that were devoted in the last decade to engineering naturally derived PI building blocks based on nontoxic, bio-renewable feedstocks. In most cases, the structural motifs of natural products are modified toward amine functionalities that are then used in classical or nonconventional methods for PI synthesis. We follow their evolution as viable alternatives to traditional starting compounds and prove they are able to generate eco-friendly PI materials that retain a combination of high-performance characteristics, or even bring some novel, enhanced features to the field. At the same time, serious progress has been made in the field of nonconventional synthetic and processing options for the development of PI-based materials. Greener experimental conditions such as ionic liquids, supercritical fluids, microwaves, and geothermal techniques represent feasible routes and reduce the negative environmental footprint of PIs' development. We also approach some insights regarding the sustainability, degradation, and recycling of PI-based materials.
