Controlling lignin solubility and hydrogenolysis selectivity by acetal-mediated functionalization

Jeremy Luterbacher, Anastasiia Komarova, Graham Reid Dick

Existing lignocellulosic biomass fractionation processes produce lignin with random, interunit C-C bonds that inhibit its depolymerization and constrain its use. Here, we exploit the aldehyde stabilization of lignin to tailor its structure, functionality, ...
