Iridium-catalysed primary alcohol oxidation and hydrogen shuttling for the depolymerisation of lignin

Green Chem., 2018, Accepted Manuscript DOI: 10.1039/C8GC01366G, CommunicationChristopher S Lancefield, Lucas Teunissen, Bert Weckhuysen, Pieter C A Bruijnincx Lignin is a potentially abundant renewable resource for the production of aromatic chemicals, however its selective depolymerisation is challenging. Here, we report a new catalytic system for the depolymerisation of... The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
