Poly(quinoxaline‐2,3‐diyl)s bearing alkoxy pendants was synthesized by living polymerization of 4,5‐dialkoxy‐3,6‐dimethyl‐1,2‐diisocyanobenzenes, which were easily accessible from 3,6‐dimethylcatechol, using organonickel complexes as initiators. Thermal properties of the obtained polymers were fully determined by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry, exhibiting strong dependence
useful for syntheses of catechol derivatives, it is hampered by many competing reactions and has not been developed as a useful methodology. Here, we succeeded in settling this problem by a first systematic thorough investigation, establishing the 1,2-rearrangement as a cascade reaction with a retro Diels-Alder reaction from o-quinol dimers. This is a useful strategy for syntheses of substituted catechols
