The two-electron reduced forms of perylene diimides (PDIs) are luminescent closed-shell species whose photochemical properties seem underexplored. Our proof-of-concept study demonstrates that straightforward (single) excitation of PDI dianions with green

A polymer-bound organocatalyst for Baeyer-Villiger reaction and phenol oxidation under continuous flow conditions is described for the first time.BARhas revealed two catalytic activities that enabled the generation of a novel approach for the synthesis of benzoquinones from β-O-4 lignin models in a one-pot protocol. High catalytic activities (yields up to 98%), selectivities, recyclability and productivity were achieved.

Lignin is the most recalcitrant of the three components of lignocellulosic biomass. The strength and stability of the linkages have long been a great challenge for the degradation and valorization of lignin biomass to obtain bio-fuels and commercial chemicals. Up to now, the selective cleavage of C–O linkages of lignin to afford chemicals contains only C, H and O atoms. Our group has developed a cleavage/cross-coupling strategy for converting 4-O-5 linkage lignin model compounds into high value-added compounds. Herein, we present a palladium-catalyzed cleavage/cross-coupling of the β-O-4 lignin model compounds with amines via dual C–O bond cleavage for the preparation of benzyl amine compounds and phenols.

The cleavage of representative lignin systems has been achieved in a metal-free two-step sequence first employing nitrogen monoxide for oxidation followed by hydrazine for reductive C?O bond scission. In combining nitrogen monoxide and lignin, the newly developed valorization strategy shows the particular feature of starting from two waste materials, and it further exploits the attractive conditions of a Wolff-Kishner reduction for C?O bond cleavage for the first time.

A novel mixed-valence polyoxovanadate-based copper-organic framework, [CuI(bbi)]2{[CuI(bbi)]2VIV2VV8O26}·2H2O (NENU-MV-5, bbi = 1,1′-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(imidazole)), was facilely synthesized from routine reagents under mild hydrothermal conditions. Using NENU-MV-5 as a heterogeneous catalyst without any co-catalyst, one-step oxidative cleavage of β-O-4 lignin into phenols and aromatic acids with high catalytic activity and selectivity was realized under an oxygen atmosphere. No obvious decrease in activity was observed after five cycles, which indicates the excellent stability and sustainability of NENU-MV-5. The perfect catalytic performance of NENU-MV-5 can be attributed to the multi-site synergistic effect of the mixed-valence VV-O-VIV sites on polyoxovanadate for the oxidation of β-O-4 alcohol to β-O-4 ketone and the Cu(i) sites on the framework for the rapid cleavage of the Cα-Cβ bond of β-O-4 ketone. This system represented the first co-catalyst-free example for the one-step selective degradation of lignin catalyzed by a well-defined crystalline catalyst with definite composition and structure in a single solvent.

Mechanochemical cleavage of lignin dimer model compounds to phenolic monomers has been developedviaa two-step strategy under milling conditions. In the first step of this process, the secondary benzylic alcohol of lignin β-O-4 linkages was selectively oxidized to the corresponding ketones over a 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ)/NaNO2catalytic system under milling conditions. In the subsequent step, mechanochemical selective cleavage of the Cβ-O bonds and Cα-Cβbonds of lignin β-O-4 ketones to acids and phenols was promoted by NaOH-catalyzed depolymerization. In addition, this two-step strategy was performed to depolymerize organosolv birch lignin, giving aromatic monomers with good selectivity for syringate. This approach provides an efficient method to convert the β-O-4 linkages of lignin to valuable aromatic monomers under mild reaction conditions.

Herein, an organocatalytic method for photochemical C-O bond cleavage of lignin systems is reported. The use of photochemistry enabled fragmentation of the β-O-4 linkage, the primary linkage in lignin, provides the fragmentation products in good to high yields. The approach was merged with reported oxidation conditions in a one-pot, two-step platform without any intermediary purification, suggesting its high fidelity. The future utility of the organocatalytic method was illustrated by applying the visible light-mediated protocol to continuous flow processing.
Cleavage of lignin model compounds and ligninox using aqueous oxalic acid

Aqueous oxalic acid cleaves oxidised β-O-4 lignin model compounds by two distinct mechanisms that are dependent on the presence of the hydroxymethyl substituent. Various β-O-4 phenoxyacetophenones that do not contain the hydroxymethyl substituent undergo oxidative cleavage upon exposure to aqueous oxalic acid in the presence of air, likely through concerted ring opening of a dioxetane intermediate to give the corresponding benzoic acid and phenyl formate. Importantly, detrimental side reactions arising from singlet oxygen and hydroperoxy radicals (from both O2 and oxalic acid) are minimal when the cleavage is run under air compared to neat oxygen. When oxidised β-O-4 lignin model compounds bearing the hydroxymethyl group are cleaved by aqueous oxalic acid, the resulting diketone and phenol products arise from a redox neutral cleavage that is analogous to the formic acid-sodium formate mediated lignin cleavage process reported by Stahl. Aqueous oxalic acid also cleaves lignin itself, with oxidised milled wood lignin (MWLox) from Pinus radiata giving a 14% yield of ethyl acetate soluble aromatics with good selectivity for vanillin. Aqueous oxalic acid appears to be a promising lignin cleavage system given the benign, bio-based reagents, absence of metals and organic solvents and a simple extraction procedure that enables oxalic acid recycling.

A homogeneous, redox-neutral photo fragmentation of diol derivatives was developed. Under photo/hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) dual catalysis, diol derivatives such as lignin model compounds and diol monoesters undergo selective β C(sp3)-O bond cleavage to afford ketones, phenols and acids effectively.
