The reductive cleavage of aryl ether linkages is a key step in the disassembly of lignin to its monolignol components, where selectivity is determined by the kinetics of multiple parallel and consecutive liquid-phase reactions. Triphasic hydrogenolysis of

The methanol to hydrocarbons (MTH) reaction was studied over two isostructural zeotype catalysts of different acid strength, H-SAPO-5 and H-SSZ-24. Conversion of methanol alone was performed at 350-450 C and WHSV = 0.31-2.48 h-1. The product selectivities of the two catalysts were compared at similar conversion. The strongly acidic H-SSZ-24 was found to be more selective towards aromatic products and C2-C3 hydrocarbons as compared to the moderately acidic H-SAPO-5, which produced more non-aromatic C4+ hydrocarbons. Co-reactions of 13CH 3OH and benzene at 250-300 C with low conversion of both reactants revealed that both catalysts produced ethene and propene from polymethylbenzenes via a paring mechanism. However, this reaction proceeded more readily in H-SSZ-24 than in H-SAPO-5. Furthermore, isobutene formation was found to be mainly associated with aromatic intermediates in H-SSZ-24, whereas isobutene produced over H-SAPO-5 was mainly formed via alkene intermediates. Overall, the results obtained in this study suggest that a lower acid strength promotes an alkene-mediated MTH reaction mechanism.

Thermolysis of benzocyclobutene 13CH2, 99percent gives styrene labeled in the β (48percent), ortho (30percent), α (14percent), meta (4percent), and para (4percent) positions.The major labels (β and ortho) are consistent with a mechanism involving interconversions of the isomeric tolylmethylenes and the methylcycloheptatrienes.This mechanism also involves interconversion of o-tolylmethylene with o-xylylene and p-tolylmethylene with p-xylylene.A minor mechanism produces 25percent of styrene.This mechanism involves cleavage of the aryl carbon to the methylene carbon bond in benzocyclobutene followed by hydrogen transfer to produce styrene.Thermolysis of p-xylylene produced from paracyclophane gives styrene (55percent), p-xylene (31percent), benzocyclobutene (4percent), benzene (4percent), and toluene (3percent).Thermolysis of metacyclophane gives styrene (18percent), p-xylene (25percent), m-xylene (3percent), benzocyclobutene (1percent), benzene (7percent), and toluene (22percent).
