Provided herein, in part, is a new class of sterically bulky, easily prepared N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands of Formula I, or a salt, solvate, geometric isomer, or stereoisomer thereof. The ligands are readily synthetically accessible exploiting the cost-effective, modular alkylation of anilines. The NHC ligands of the present disclosure can be used to prepare effective catalysts with transition metals, including the compound of Formula II, or a salt, solvate, geometric isomer, or stereoisomer thereof. In certain embodiments, the transition metal is Pd.

The present disclosure provides a styrene derivative and a preparation method thereof, and a modified organic silicone resin and a preparation method and use thereof, and belongs to the technical field of back coating solutions. The styrene derivative is specifically 2,3-difluoro-4-methoxystyrene. A fluorine atom is introduced into a benzene ring structure, and the obtained styrene derivative contains a C—F bond with a relatively high chemical bond energy, such that the styrene derivative has a relatively high thermal stability. The styrene derivative can be introduced into an organic silicone resin to make the obtained modified organic silicone resin have a higher thermal stability. The modified organic silicone resin can be used as a back coating solution to effectively improve a heat resistance of barcode thermal transfer ribbons.
