Unprecedented organocatalytic reduction of lignin model compounds to phenols and primary alcohols using hydrosilanes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The first metal-free reduction of lignin model compounds is described. Using inexpensive Et3SiH, PMHS and TMDS hydrosilanes as reductants, α-O-4 and β-O-4 linkages are reduced to primary alcohols and phenols under mild conditions using B(C6F5)3 as an efficient catalyst.

متن کاملCorrelation Analysis of 31 P NMR Chemical Shifts with Substituent Effects of Phenols
Over 60 lignin-related model compounds were phosphitylated with 2chloro-4,4,5,5-tetramethyldioxaphospholane, a sterically hindered analogue of 2-chloro-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane used in earlier work, and their 31P chemical shifts were recorded. Excellent resolution between the chemical shifts of phosphitylated carboxylic acids, phenols and aliphatic alcohols was obtained. The correlations of the p...
متن کاملChemoselective metal-free aerobic alcohol oxidation in lignin.
An efficient organocatalytic method for chemoselective aerobic oxidation of secondary benzylic alcohols within lignin model compounds has been identified. Extension to selective oxidation in natural lignins has also been demonstrated. The optimal catalyst system consists of 4-acetamido-TEMPO (5 mol %; TEMPO = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl) in combination with HNO3 and HCl (10 mol % each)...

An extracellular lignin-degrading enzyme from the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium Burdsall was purified to homogeneity by ion-exchange chromatography. The 42,000-dalton ligninase contains one protoheme IX per molecule. It catalyzes, nonstereospecifically, several oxidations in the alkyl side chains of lignin-related compounds: C(alpha)-C(beta) cleavage in lignin-related compounds of t...
