Abstract
Thermo-oxidation of biomass is an important process that occurs through a variety of reaction pathways depending on the chemical nature of the molecules and reaction conditions. These processes can be modeled using reactive molecular dynamics to study chemical reactions and the evolution of converted molecules over time. The advantage of this approach is that many molecules can be modeled, but it is challenging to use the large amount of data obtained from such a simulation to determine reaction products and pathways. In this study, we developed a tracking approach to identify the reaction pathways of the dominant reaction products from reactive molecular dynamics simulations. We demonstrated the approach for thermo-oxidation reactions of modified model lignin compounds. For two modified lignin structures, we tracked the evolving chemical species to find the most common reaction products. Subsequently, we monitored specific bonds to determine the individual steps in the reaction process. This combined approach of reactive molecular dynamics and tracking enabled us to identify the most likely thermo-oxidation pathways. The methodology can be used to investigate the thermo-oxidative pathways of a wider range of chemical compounds.

Role of Nb 2O 5 Crystal Phases on the Photocatalytic Conversion of Lignin Model Molecules and Selectivity for Value-Added Products. CHEMSUSCHEM 2024:e202301594.

Abstract
The photocatalytic conversion in aqueous media of phenol and guaiacol as a lignin model compound using Nb2O5 with different crystal phases was studied. Nb2O5 particles were synthesized using hydrothermal methods, where it was observed that changes in the solvent control their morphology and crystal phase. Different photocatalytic behavior of Nb2O5 was observed with the selected model compounds, indicating that its selection directly impacts the resulting conversion and selectivity rates as well as the reaction pathway, highlighting the relevance of model molecule selection. Photocatalytic conversion of phenol showed conversion rate (C%) up to 25 % after 2 h irradiation and high selectivity (S%) to pyrogallol (up to 50 %). Orthorhombic Nb2O5 spheres favored conversion through free hydroxyl radicals while monoclinic rods did not convert phenol. Guaiacol photocatalytic oxidation showed high conversion rate but lower selectivity. Orthorhombic and monoclinic Nb2O5 favored the formation of resorcinol with S % ~0.43 % (C % ~33 %) and ~13 % (C % ~27 %) respectively. The mixture of both phases enhanced the guaiacol conversion rate to ~55 % with ~17 % of selectivity to salicylaldehyde. The use of radical scavengers provided information to elucidate the reaction pathway for these model compounds, showing that different reaction pathways may be obtained for the same photocatalyst if the model compound is changed.

Abstract
Lignin modifying enzymes (LMEs) have gained widespread recognition in depolymerization of lignin polymers by oxidative cleavage. LMEs are a robust class of biocatalysts that include lignin peroxidase (LiP), manganese peroxidase (MnP), versatile peroxidase (VP), laccase (LAC), and dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP). Members of the LMEs family act on phenolic, non-phenolic substrates and have been widely researched for valorization of lignin, oxidative cleavage of xenobiotics and phenolics. LMEs implementation in the biotechnological and industrial sectors has sparked significant attention, although its potential future applications remain underexploited. To understand the mechanism of LMEs in sustainable pollution mitigation, several studies have been undertaken to assess the feasibility of LMEs in correlating to diverse pollutants for binding and intermolecular interactions at the molecular level. However, further investigation is required to fully comprehend the underlying mechanism. In this review we presented the key structural and functional features of LMEs, including the computational aspects, as well as the advanced applications in biotechnology and industrial research. Furthermore, concluding remarks and a look ahead, the use of LMEs coupled with computational frameworks, built upon artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), has been emphasized as a recent milestone in environmental research.

Abstract
Lignin, the second most abundant biopolymer found in nature, has emerged as a potential source of sustainable fuels, chemicals, and materials. Finding suitable solvents, as well as technologies for efficient and affordable lignin dissolution and depolymerization, are major obstacles in the conversion of lignin to value-added products. Certain ionic liquids (ILs) are capable of dissolving and depolymerizing lignin but designing and developing an effective IL for lignin dissolution remains quite challenging. To address this issue, the COnductor-like Screening MOdel for Real Solvents (COSMO-RS) model was used to screen 5670 ILs by computing logarithmic activity coefficients (ln(γ)) and excess enthalpies (HE) of lignin, respectively. Based on the COSMO-RS computed thermodynamic properties (ln(γ) and HE) of lignin, anions such as acetate, methyl carbonate, octanoate, glycinate, alaninate, and lysinate in combination with cations like tetraalkylammonium, tetraalkylphosphonium, and pyridinium are predicted to be suitable solvents for lignin dissolution. The dissolution properties such as interaction energy between anion and cation, viscosity, Hansen solubility parameters, dissociation constants, and Kamlet-Taft parameters of selected ILs were evaluated to assess their propensity for lignin dissolution. Furthermore, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to understand the structural and dynamic properties of tetrabutylammonium [TBA]+-based ILs and lignin mixtures and to shed light on the mechanisms involved in lignin dissolution. MD simulation results suggested [TBA]+-based ILs have the potential to dissolve lignin because of their higher contact probability and interaction energies with lignin when compared to cholinium lysinate.

Abstract
In this study, a novel amphiphilic KL-AA-MMA nanoparticle was prepared through the graft copolymerization of kraft lignin (KL) with acrylic acid (AA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA), using potassium persulfate as an initiator in a water/dimethyl sulfoxide solvent medium, which was followed by the nanoprecipitation technique using dimethylformamide as a solvent and deionized water as an antisolvent. The successful graft polymerization was verified by 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 31P-NMR, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyses; and the grafting yield of the generated KL-AA-MMA copolymer ranged from 68.2% to 96.5%. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation revealed the formation of amorphous KL-AA-MMA nanoparticles. Additionally, KL-AA-MMA9 nanoparticles with the highest yield exhibited the minimum hydrodynamic diameter and polydispersity of 261 nm and 0.153, respectively. Moreover, the amphiphilicity of KL-AA-MMA nanoparticles was significantly improved by the grafting of MMA monomers. Finally, the adsorption performance of KL-AA-MMA nanoparticles at the xylene interface was evaluated by a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). The results demonstrated that the most amphiphilic sample, KL-AA-MMA9 nanoparticles, with the smallest hydrodynamic size displayed the highest adsorption on the oil/water interface. This product provides a wide range of applications in oil/water emulsions.

Abstract
Methyl bromide (CH3Br) and methyl chloride (CH3Cl) are major carriers of atmospheric bromine and chlorine, respectively, which can catalyze stratospheric ozone depletion. However, in our current understanding, there are missing sources associated with these two species. Here we investigate the effect of copper(II) on CH3Br and CH3Cl production from soil, seawater and model organic compounds: catechol (benzene-1,2-diol) and guaiacol (2-methoxyphenol). We show that copper sulfate (CuSO4) enhances CH3Br and CH3Cl production from soil and seawater, and it may be further amplified in conjunction with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or solar radiation. This represents an abiotic production pathway of CH3Br and CH3Cl perturbed by anthropogenic application of copper(II)-based chemicals. Hence, we suggest that the widespread application of copper(II) pesticides in agriculture and the discharge of anthropogenic copper(II) to the oceans may account for part of the missing sources of CH3Br and CH3Cl, and thereby contribute to stratospheric halogen load. Halogenated compounds impact stratospheric ozone. This study suggests agricultural application of Cu(II) chemicals induces abiotic production of methyl bromide and methyl chloride from soil and seawater, contributing to the atmospheric halogen load.

Abstract
The catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin has long been a hot research topic and vacancy engineering is a new means to develop more efficient catalysts for this process. Oxygen vacancies and sulfur vacancies are both widely used in HDO. Based on the current research status of vacancies in the field of lignin-derived oxygenates, this Minireview discusses in detail design methods for vacancy engineering, including surface activation, synergistic modification, and morphology control. Moreover, it is clarified that in the HDO reaction, vacancies can act as acidic sites, promote substrate adsorption, and regulate product distribution, whereas for the catalysts, vacancies can enhance stability and reducibility, improve metal dispersion, and improve redox capacity. Finally, the characterization of vacancies is summarized and strategies are proposed to address the current deficiencies in this field.

By increasing the environmental concerns and depletion of petroleum resources, bio-based resins have gained interest. Recently, lignin, vanillin (4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde), and divanillin (6,6'-dihydroxy-5,5'-dimethoxybiphenyl-3,3'-dicarbaldehyde)-based resins have attracted attention due to the low cost, environmental benefits, good thermal stability, excellent mechanical properties, and suitability for high-performance natural fiber composite applications. This review highlights the recent use of lignin, vanillin, and divanillin-based resins with natural fiber composites and their synthesized processes. Finally, discussions are made on the curing kinetics, mechanical properties, flame retardancy, and bio-based resins' adhesion property.

Abstract
A metal-free and redox-neutral method for Beckmann rearrangement employing inexpensive and readily available SO2 F2 gas is described. The reported transformation proceeds at ambient temperature and is compatible with a wide range of sterically and electronically diverse aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic and lignin-like oximes providing amides in good to excellent yields. The reaction proceeds through the formation of an imidoyl fluoride intermediate that can also be used for the synthesis of amidines.

Abstract
The recovery of noble metals from aqueous systems is of great significance for constructing sustainable framework of modern industry yet remains challenging. Herein, CuxSy/Carbon composites with superior thermal stability and adsorption capacity were successfully synthesized via one-pot hydrothermal method using lignosulfonate as dual role of raw materials. The optimal synthesis conditions were investigated via tailoring the temperature and the mass ratio of reagents. The morphologies and physical properties of the composites were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The surface chemistry was analyzed by Zeta potential analysis, Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order model well described the adsorption of Pd(II) and Pd(IV) delivered by fabricated composites. The adsorption capacity obtained from Langmuir isotherm model towards Pd(IV) was 114 mg/g and Pd(II) was 101 mg/g, respectively. More importantly, the adsorbed palladium species could be desorbed with hydrochloric acid and thiourea, which suggested good durability and recycling performance of the typical composite. This work might provide a new guidance for the utilization of lignin or its derivatives and enriched the research in the field of noble metal recovery.

Abstract
The lignin-first concept is a new innovation for full utilization of lignocellulose into value-added chemicals. Ionic liquid (IL) polyoxometalates [MIMPS]2 H4 P2 Mo18 O62 [MIMPS=1-(3-sulfonic group) propyl-3-methyl imidazolium] are reported to be active in the cleavage of β-O-4, α-O-4, and 4-O-5 bonds in three kinds of lignin models and also efficient for converting native lignocellulose. The three components in soft or hard lignocellulose were depolymerized in a one-pot three-step treatment. For soft lignocellulose (pine), lignin was first decomposed into guaiacol and phenol with yields of 15.3 and 12.9 % at 98.6 % delignification efficiency at 130 °C for 14 h. Meanwhile, hemicellulose and cellulose were intact during the delignifying process and were subsequently hydrolyzed to 3.5 % xylose at 100 % hemicellulose conversion efficiency at 150 °C for 14 h and 36.4 % glucose at 100 % cellulose conversion efficiency at 170 °C for 12 h, respectively. For hard lignocellulose (poplar), the yields of guaiacol and phenol were 10.1 and 8.7 % at 91.9 % delignification efficiency at 130 °C for 14 h, whereas 12.9 % xylose at 90.4 % hemicellulose conversion efficiency at 150 °C for 12 h and 32.9 % glucose at 100 % cellulose conversion efficiency at 170 °C for 12 h were obtained. [MIMPS]2 H4 P2 Mo18 O62 achieved the full utilization of lignocellulose with total conversion in the lignin-first strategy and also showed the easy separation as a result of temperature-reversibility with ten recycling runs.

Abstract
Thermochemical lignin conversion processes can be described as complex reaction networks involving not only de-polymerization and re-polymerization reactions, but also chemical transformations of the depolymerized mono-, di-, and oligomeric compounds. They typically result in a product mixture consisting of a gaseous, liquid (i.e., mono-, di-, and oligomeric products), and solid phase. Consequently, researchers have developed a common strategy to simplify this issue by replacing lignin with simpler, but still representative, lignin model compounds. This strategy is typically applied to the elucidation of reaction mechanisms and the exploration of novel lignin conversion approaches. In this review, we present a general overview of the latest advances in the principal thermochemical processes applied for the conversion of lignin model compounds using heterogeneous catalysts. This review focuses on the most representative lignin conversion methods, i.e., reductive, oxidative, pyrolytic, and hydrolytic processes. An additional subchapter on the reforming of pyrolysis oil model compounds has also been included. Special attention will be given to those research papers using "green" reactants (i.e., H2 or renewable hydrogen donor molecules in reductive processes or air/O2 in oxidative processes) and solvents, although less environmentally friendly chemicals will be also considered. Moreover, the scope of the review is limited to those most representative lignin model compounds and to those reaction products that are typically targeted in lignin valorization.

Abstract
A low-cost and well-separated approach is introduced for adsorption pollutants in water. Chemical modified lignin is prepared with diethylenetriamine to enhance the reaction activities, then used to prepare lignin derivate magnetic hydrogel microspheres (LDMHMs) via blending with Fe3O4. The LDMHMs are successful prepared by the determination of FT-IR data, and the morphology shown from SEM imagine indicates the LDMHMs are in nanosized. The prepared LDMHMs are used as adsorbents for organic dyes, such as methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO) and malachite green (MG), the plateaus data are 43 mg/g, 39 mg/g and 155 mg/g, respectively. For inorganic pollutions, such as Pb2+, Hg2+ and Ni2+, the plateaus data are 33 mg/g, 55 mg/g and 23 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption data of unmodified lignin are 2.6 mg/g (Pb2+), 3.3 mg/g (Hg2+), 2.1 mg/g (Ni2+), 8 mg/g (MB), 10 mg/g (MG) and 2 mg/g (MO) in the same condition. The adsorbents are recycled by magnetic separation, regenerating from acid condition and reused for multiple cycles. The regeneration ratios are all above 90%, indicating a highly reusability and further reducing the cost of the treatment.

Abstract
Herein, 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenylethanol (β-O-4), 2-methoxyphenyl anisole (α-O-4) and 4-phenoxyphenol (4-O-5) were selected as typical lignin model compounds. Given the effectiveness of traditional acid-base catalysts for lignin depolymerisation, a novel Ni/CaO-H-ZSM-5(60) catalyst was prepared to investigate the difficulty level of C-O bond of three model compounds cleavage in ethanol. It was observed that Ni/CaO-H-ZSM-5(60) had prominent performance on the C-O bond cleavage at very mild conditions (140 °C, 1 MPa H2). Among them, the C-O bond of α-O-4 and β-O-4 could be completely cleaved within 60 min. Although the C-O bond of 4-O-5 had high bond energy, 41.2% of conversion was occurred in 60 min. The introduction of CaO could regulate the acidity of H-ZSM-5 to enhance the ability to break C-O bonds. Moreover, the possible pathways of C-O ether bonds in three lignin model compounds cleavage were proposed in order to selectively obtain target products from the raw lignin degradation.

Abstract The global need to develop sustainable materials and products from non-fossil raw material is pushing industry to utilize side-streams more efficiently using green processes. Aromatic lignin, the world’s second most abundant biopolymer, has multiple attractive properties which can be exploited in various ways instead of being burnt or used as animal feed. Lignin’s poor water solubility and its highly branched and random structure make it a challenging biopolymer to exploit when developing novel technologies for the preparation of tailored nanobiomaterials for value-added applications. The notable number of scientific publications focusing on the formation and modification of technical lignin in nanoparticulate morphology show that these bottlenecks could be solved using lignin in the form of colloidal particles (CLPs). These particles are very stable at wide pH range (4–11) and easily dispersible in organic solvents after stabilized via cross-linking. Negative hydroxyl groups on the CLP surface enable multiple enzymatic and chemical modifications e.g. via polymerization reactions and surface-coating with positive polymers. This contribution highlights how tailored CLPs could be innovatively exploited in different the state-of-the-art applications such as medicine, foods, and cosmetics. Graphic abstract ![]()

Abstract
Lignin as the second most abundant and the only polyaromatics-contained bio-polymer in plant has been most studied for various applications. In the past decade, the utilization of lignin for value-added materials has been extensively sought after since lignin valorization represents one of the main challenging issues of the paper industry and lignocellulosic biorefinery. Among these researches, making lignin into hydrogels has great potential for upgrading lignin into functional materials. In this review, lignin hydrogel is wrapped up with preparation strategies, properties and applications. The major cross-linking strategies to synthesize lignin-based hydrogels were reviewed first, including monomers copolymerization, crosslinking of monomers with reactive polymer precursors and polymer-polymer crosslinking. Two most important properties of mechanical and porous structures of lignin hydrogel were then discussed. More importantly, we extensively reviewed current applications of lignin hydrogel, including absorption, controlled release, smart materials for stimuli sensitive, biosensors and electrodes. These applications have paved avenues for lignin valorization. Overall, this paper covers recent advancements regarding lignin-based hydrogel and represents a timely review of this promising material.

Abstract
Energy and fuels derived from biomass pose lesser impact on the environmental carbon footprint than those derived from fossil fuels. In order for the biomass-to-energy and biomass-to-chemicals processes to play their important role in the loop of the circular economy, highly active, selective, and stable catalysts and the related efficient chemical processes are urgently needed. Lignin is the most thermal stable fraction of biomass and a particularly important resource for the production of chemicals and fuels. This mini review mainly focuses on lignin valorizations for renewable chemicals and fuels production and summarizes the recent interest in the lignin valorization over Ni and relevant bimetallic metal catalysts on various supports. Particular attention will be paid to those strategies to convert lignin to chemicals and fuels components, such as pyrolysis, hydrodeoxygenation, and hydrogenolysis. The review is written in a simple and elaborated way in order to draw chemists and engineers’ attention to Ni-based catalysts in lignin valorizations and guide them in designing innovative catalytic materials based on the lignin conversion reaction.

Abstract
We report a general protocol for the light-driven isomerization of cyclic aliphatic alcohols to linear carbonyl compounds. These reactions proceed via proton-coupled electron-transfer activation of alcohol O-H bonds followed by subsequent C-C β-scission of the resulting alkoxy radical intermediates. In many cases, these redox-neutral isomerizations proceed in opposition to a significant energetic gradient, yielding products that are less thermodynamically stable than the starting materials. A mechanism is presented to rationalize this out-of-equilibrium behavior that may serve as a model for the design of other contrathermodynamic transformations driven by excited-state redox events.
