Application of quantitative 31P NMR in biomass lignin and biofuel precursors characterization

Pu, Yunqiao, Cao, Shilin, Ragauskas, Arthur J.·2011·Energy & Environmental Science

Abstract

The last decade has seen tremendous growth and interest in renewable energy and fuels aimed primarily at addressing issues of climate change, energy security, and rising energy costs. These efforts coupled with the demand for efficient utilization of biomass place a premium on the detailed analysis of the fundamental chemical structures of biomass, especially in light of the ever-increasing efforts to generate transgenic plants with reduced recalcitrance and altered lignin structure. This review examines the growing application of phosphitylation followed by 31P NMR to quantitatively analyze biomass lignin structures including guaiacyl, syringyl, guaiacyl with carbon substituents at the C5 position, catechol, p–hydroxyphenyl, aliphatic and carboxylic hydroxyl groups. The application of this methodology to provide a rapid analytical tool for lignin/biomass derived bio-oils and biodiesel precursors is also discussed. Utilizing lignin isolated from native and transgenic plants as well as from pretreatment and biological/thermal deconstruction processes, researchers have demonstrated that this technique has unique characterization capabilities which have broad applicability in the biofuels research community.

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.
