Green aromatic aldehyde production from biomass via catalytic fractionation and ozonolysis

Abstract

Herein, we propose a catalytic fractionation-ozonolysis strategy for producing aromatic aldehydes from biomass. Native lignin is selectively depolymerized into ~30 wt% 4-methoxypropenyl-guaiacol/syringol over MoO2 at 160 - 180 oC, followed...
