Novel non-charged and ionic xylan carbamate (XC) derivatives were synthesized in a modular approach from xylan phenyl carbonates (XPC) as reactive intermediates. XPC with varying degrees of substitution (DS) from 0.5 to 1.9 were converted with different non-ionic primary and secondary amines in different molar ratio to obtain the corresponding XC with high conversion rates of up to 100%. In a similar way, ionic amines were employed for the aminolysis of XPC to obtain charged XC. The XC were characterized by NMR- and infrared spectroscopy. XPC proofed to be highly versatile building blocks for the preparation of ionic xylan derivatives. The type and amount of charged groups could be tuned efficiently. Moreover, high DS values of up to 1.4 for cationic and 1.8 for anionic XC derivatives could be achieved, which is higher than reported previously for comparable ionic xylan derivatives that were prepared by "conventional" esterification and etherification reactions.

Solid-state ionic conductors are integral to flexible electronics, addressing the shortcomings of hydrogels and ionic liquid-based ionic gels. However, the current reliance on petroleum-based materials challenges environmental conservation and sustainable development. Biomass-based solid-state ionic conductors present a viable solution to these concerns but often fall short in mechanical performance.

Xylan-derived packaging materials have gained considerable popularity owing to their renewability, non-toxicity, and biodegradability. However, thermoforming is challenging owing to its rigid structure and hydrogen-bonding network of the xylan molecular chain, which limits its large-scale production. Herein, a heat-processable xylan derivative, xylan cinnamate (XC), was synthesized via an esterification reaction in ionic liquids.

The biomedical field urgently needs for programmable stent materials with nontoxic, autonomous self-healing, injectability, and suitable mechanical strength, especially self-expanding characteristics. However, such materials are still lacking. Herein, based on gelatin and dialdehyde-functionalized xylan, we synthesized 3D-printable, autonomous, self-healing, and mechanically robust hydrogels with a reversible Schiff base crosslink network.

The current study goal was to improve mucoadhesive potential and ocular pharmacokinetics of nanoparticles of thiolated xyloglucan (TXGN) containing moxifloxacin (MXF). Thiolation of xyloglucan (XGN) was achieved with esterification with 3-mercaptopropionic acid. TXGN was characterized by NMR and FTIR analysis.
