Isolation of Functionalized Phenolic Monomers through Selective Oxidation and CO Bond Cleavage of the β‐O‐4 Linkages in Lignin

Lancefield, Christopher S., Ojo, O. Stephen, Tran, Fanny, Westwood, Nicholas J.·2015·Angewandte Chemie International Edition

Abstract

Functionalized phenolic monomers have been generated and isolated from an organosolv lignin through a two‐step depolymerization process. Chemoselective catalytic oxidation of β‐O‐4 linkages promoted by the DDQ/t BuONO/O 2 system was achieved in model compounds, including polymeric models and in real lignin. The oxidized β‐O‐4 linkages were then cleaved on reaction with zinc. Compared to many existing methods, this protocol, which can be achieved in one pot, is highly selective, giving rise to a simple mixture of products that can be readily purified to give pure compounds. The functionality present in these products makes them potentially valuable building blocks.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
