Pd-catalyzed carbonylation, as an efficient synthetic approach to the installation of carbonyl groups in organic compounds, has been one of the most important research fields in the past decade. Although elegant reactions that allow highly selective carbonylations have been developed, straightforward routes with improved reaction activity and broader substrate scope remain long-term challenges for new practical applications. Here, we show a new type of synergistic Cu/Pd-catalyzed carbonylation reaction using alcohols and dioxgen as the carbonyl sources. A broad range of aryl iodides and alcohols are compatible with this protocol. The reaction is concise and practical due to the ready availability of the starting materials and the scalability of the reaction. In addition, the reaction affords lactones and lactams in an intermolecular fashion. Moreover, DFT calculations have been performed to study the detailed mechanisms.

Lignin is a promising renewable source of aromatic chemicals. Described herein is a new photocatalytic methodology for depolymerization of oxidized Kraft lignin to industrially relevant aromatic platform chemicals. The photooxidation route begins with oxidation of alcohol moieties using a gold nanoparticle/hydrotalcite composite. Next, the oxidized lignin is subjected to UVA irradiation in the presence of TiO2, leading to a 3-fold decrease of its molecular weight and to the formation of various monolignols. The products obtained in both steps were characterized using FTIR, SEC, GC-MS, and 2D NMR spectroscopy, which confirm the depolymerization of lignin to smaller molecular weight products. This method offers both energetic and chemical advantages over thermochemical processing for lignin valorisation.
