Abstract
Traditional antifouling (AF) biocides have raised environmental concerns, prompting a search for sustainable alternatives. This study addresses this pressing issue by reviewing xanthone derivatives as promising candidates for environmentally friendly AF coatings, showcasing a balance between enhanced AF activity and minimal environmental impact. Furthermore, an innovative, scalable, and highly versatile methodology based on a green nanopalladium-supported catalyst on biochar is presented as an interesting alternative to synthesize diverse xanthone derivatives. This approach aligns with sustainable practices in organic synthesis and expands the repertoire of potential antifouling solutions.
