Intramolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of substituted 1,2-cyclohexadienes with pendent furans enables the synthesis of complex tetracyclic scaffolds in a single step under mild conditions. All Diels-Alder cycloadducts were obtained as single diastereomers, assigned as the isomer. Substrates were easily assembled via Stork-Danheiser alkylation of 3-ethoxy-2-bromocyclohex-2-enone to accommodate a range of tethers and furan traps. Cleavage of enol acetate moieties resulted in room-temperature Diels-Alder cycloreversion to tethered furyl cyclohexenones.

International Joint Institute of Advanced Coating Technology, Taizhou University, Taizhou 318000, China.
Article Synopsis
- The research focuses on developing self-healing and recyclable polyurethane elastomers amid the fossil fuel energy crisis, using a unique cross-linking agent with furan groups based on Diels-Alder chemistry.
- Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) were incorporated to enhance the mechanical properties of the elastomer, yielding composites with better strength based on tensile testing.
- The reversible nature of the covalent bonds in the elastomer allows for recycling at high temperatures and offers repair capabilities for damaged coatings, highlighting its potential use in metal protection applications.
Self-Cross-Linkable Maleic Anhydride Terpolymer Coating with Inherent High Antimicrobial Activity and Low Cytotoxicity.

Article Synopsis
- This study focuses on creating a new coating made from a maleic anhydride terpolymer (PPTM) that is attached to silicone rubber (SR) to reduce infections in medical devices by improving antimicrobial properties.
- The resulting coating, known as SPM, showed strong performance by reducing friction on catheters by 50%, remaining intact after extensive bending and water exposure, while effectively killing 99.99% of bacteria.
- Notably, SPM maintained significant bactericidal activity over several disinfection cycles and exhibited low cytotoxicity to cells, indicating its potential as a safe and effective solution for minimizing implant-related infections.
Click-Chemistry-Mediated Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticle-Supported Polymer-Wrapped Carbon Nanotubes: Glucose Sensor and Antibacterial Material.

We report a novel approach for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized on polymer-wrapped carbon nanotubes (Ag@polymer/CNTs) for the non-enzymatic glucose sensing and antibacterial activity applications. Poly(styrene--maleic anhydride) (PSM) was functionalized with amino furan to obtain furan-modified poly(styrene--maleic anhydride) (PSMF), which was later grafted onto the surface of CNTs by Diels-Alder "click" reaction to afford a polymer/CNTs hybrid material. The photo-deposition technique was applied to immobilized small-sized (∼10 nm) AgNPs on the surface of the polymer/CNTs hybrid material using visible light irradiation.

Aliphatic polycarbonates represent an important class of materials with notable applications in the biomedical field. In this work, low Tg furan-functionalized bio-based aliphatic polycarbonates were cross-linked thanks to the Diels-Alder (DA) reaction with a bis-maleimide as the cross-linking agent. The thermo-reversible DA reaction allowed for the preparation of reversible cross-linked polycarbonate materials with tuneable properties as a function of the pendent furan content that was grafted on the polycarbonate backbone.
