Abstract
  • A new method for selective and efficient cleavage ofarylglycerol-β-aryl (β-O-4) ether linkages inlignins is described and applied to several lignin β-ether models.The term “DFRC” was coined forderivatization followed by reductive cleavage. Derivatization,accompanied by cell wall solubilization,is accomplished with acetyl bromide (AcBr); reductive cleavage ofresulting β-bromo ethers utilizeszinc in acetic acid. Degradation monomers, 4-acetoxycinnamylacetates, from β-ether cleavage bythe DFRC method were identified by NMR, GC−MS, and comparison of GCretention times withauthentic compounds. Under the conditions used in this study, theβ-ether linkage of all modelswas cleaved in very high (>92%) yield. The DFRC method producessimpler mixtures of monomerswith higher yields than alternative hydrolytic methods. Because ofits relative simplicity, mildconditions, and exceptional selectivity, this method should become apowerful analytical methodfor lignin characterization.
