Conversion of lignin-derived molecules into value-added chemicals is critical for sustainable chemistry but still challenging. Herein, phosphorus-modified palladium catalyzed the degradation of lignin-derived 4-O-5 linkage to produce KA oil (cyclohexanone-cyclohexanol oil) was reported. The reaction proceeds via a restricted partial hydrogenation-hydrolysis pathway. Phosphorus-modified palladium catalyst suppressed the full hydrogenation of diary ether, which was the key point to produce KA oil selectively. Under the optimized conditions, the 4.5 nm Pd-P NPs could catalyze the conversion of 4-O-5 linkage into KA oil in 83% selectivity with a high production rate of 32.5 mmol·g?1Pd·min?1. This study represented an original method for KA oil production.

Hydrodeoxygenation of lignin-derived phenols could be achieved generally with three reaction pathways: tautomerization, direct ring hydrogenation and direct C–O bond cleavage. The former pathway has been extensively studied over Pd/Fe catalyst in liquid-phase reaction, however, the contribution of the latter two is yet subject to further investigations. In this report, a comparative study of direct C–O bond cleavage and direct ring hydrogenation reaction pathways is presented on Pd/Fe, Fe and Pd/C catalysts using diphenyl ether as modelling compound. Despite its much higher activation energy than direct ring hydrogenation, direct C–O bond cleavage is dominant over Pd/Fe with much higher rates than the monometallic analogues due to the synergic catalysis of Pd–Fe. Based on this study and our previous results, the detailed reaction network for HDO of diphenyl ether is proposed. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

The cleavage of the etheric C–O bond in diphenyl ether (DPE), phenethyl phenyl ether (PPE) and benzyl-phenyl ether (BPE) has been investigated by using Ru/C (5% wt) and Pd/C (5% wt), as heterogeneous catalysts, under reaction conditions generally adopted for the reductive catalytic fractionalization of lignocellulosic biomasses (lignin-first approach). Catalytic tests were carried out in the presence of simple C1-C3 alcoholic H-donor solvents (methanol, ethanol and 2-propanol) used as such or in mixture with water in the temperature range of 120–240 °C both in the presence or in the absence of molecular hydrogen as reducing agent. Under transfer hydrogenolysis conditions, the Ru/C catalyst was found to be the best performing system in the cleavage of the 4–O–5 etheric C–O bond (95 % DPE conversion in 2-propanol at 210 °C after 3 h of reaction) with a less pronounced tendency in hydrogenating the aromatic ring. Upon increasing the water content in the reaction medium, a decrease in the cleavage of the C–O bond of DPE together with a higher production of phenolics is observed as a consequence of the reductive hydrolysis reaction occurrence. The best yield in aromatic compounds (52 %) was obtained by using as solvent a water/2-propanol (75:25, v/v) mixture in absence of added molecular hydrogen, with the alcoholic fraction being the in-situ H-source. A lower tendency to undergo to hydrolysis reaction together with a higher production of aromatics is registered in the case of phenethyl phenyl ether and benzyl-phenyl ether. Results are explained in terms of the higher steric hindrance of PPE and BPE with respect to DPE and of the competitive adsorption of arenes arising from hydrogenolysis of etheric β–O–4 and α–O–4 bonds (phenol + ethyl benzene or phenol + toluene) on the Ru/C catalyst surface.
