The selective cleavage of common linkages in lignin polymers is a promising approach to generate valuable aromatic hydrocarbons. Herein, we found that on oxidation of Cα and Cγ hydroxyl groups in β-O-4 lignin model compounds with TEMPO catalyst resulted in the formation of 1,3-dicarbonyl TEMPO adduct. These oxidized products readily underwent fragmentation at Cα-Cβ bond in the presence of a catalytic amount of acid to generate corresponding carboxylic acid and phenol monomers.

A series of isomeric 2,6- and 2,4-diaryl-3,7-dioxabicyclooctanes have been prepared via the corresponding threo, and erythro-dioxo-diesters.Comparison of their 1H and 13C n.m.r. spectra reveals small differences in chemical shifts and coupling constants which could be diagnostic in assigning structures to such compounds.The structure of 4-hydroxysesamin has been confirmed by direct correlation with sesamin.
