Abstract

Abstract Novel biobased trisphenols were obtained by palladium-and cobalt-catalyzed [2+ 2+ 2] cycloaddition of dehydroanethole isomers which were readily prepared from the natural product trans-anethole. The trisphenols were transformed into their corresponding tricyanate esters and thermally cured to give polycyanurate networks. Comparison of the thermal properties, from differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric and ...
