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

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.

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.
