“…We then made a strategy to prepare bioderived aromatic diamines using the photoreaction of cinnamoyl monoamine. In terms of a functional substitute group for cinnamates, the phenylene hydroxyl group has mainly been reported, and there have been a few studies on aminocinnamate derivatives . One report showed that some bacteria produced 4-aminophenylalanine (4APhe) as an intermediate of antibiotics .…”

“…One of the most advanced classes of high-performance polymeric materials is the polyimides (PIs), with excellent thermo-mechanical performance, high chemical stability, low coefficient of thermal expansion, etc. , However bioderived PIs were very difficult to prepare since the aromatic diamines cannot be made using biosynthesis because they are incompatible with microorganisms and plant cells, presumably due to the combined interactions of ionic, hydrophobic, and π-electron-related factors with cell constituents. Even aromatic monoamines have rarely been produced by microorganisms. − …”

The development of high-performance biobased polymers such as polyimides (PIs) is indispensable to establish a sustainable green society, but it is very difficult due to the incompatibility of their monomeric aromatic diamines with microorganisms. Here, we developed biobased PIs from bioavailable aromatic diamines, which were photodimers of 4-aminocinnamic acid (4ACA) derived from genetically manipulated Escherichia coli. These biobased PI films showed ultrahigh thermal resistance with T 10 values over 425°C and no T g values under 350°C, which is the highest value of all biobased plastics reported thus far. The PI films also showed high tensile strength, high Young's moduli, good cell compatibility, excellent transparency, and high refractive indices.
