Polyurethane networks from fatty-acid-based aromatic triols: synthesis and characterization.
TL;DR: Novel biobased aromatic triols were synthesized through the transition-metal-catalyzed cyclotrimerization of two alkyne fatty acid methyl esters followed by the reduction of the ester groups to give terminal primary hydroxyl groups.
