Key Points

C-C/C-O bond cleavage achieved under mild conditions, resulting in aromatic compounds.
Using 2-phenoxy-1-phenylethanol, the process efficiently transforms lignin-derived compounds.
The method leverages MnCl₂ to catalyze reactions effectively, indicating potential for broader applications.
Findings highlight the promise of lignocellulosic biomass in renewable energy contexts.

Implication

Two-step protocol demonstrates efficient bond cleavage in lignocellulosic biomass, suggesting new energy solutions.

Abstract

Despite oil depletion and rising energy needs, renewable lignocellulosic biomass is a sustainable alternative, however, lignin's complex linkages hinder its valorization. A two-step mild protocol using 2-phenoxy-1-phenylethanol cleaves its C-C/C-O...
