Precision Chemistry, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 2(9), P. 428 - 446

Published: June 6, 2024

Lignin, as the second largest renewable biomass resource in nature, has increasingly received significant interest for its potential to be transformed into valuable chemicals, potentially contributing carbon neutrality. Among different approaches, electricity-driven conversion holds great promise substitute a petroleum resource-driven one, owing characteristics of environmental friendliness, high energy efficiency, and tunable reactivity. The challenges lie on polymeric structure complex functional groups lignin, requiring development efficient electrocatalysts lignin valorization with enhanced activity selectivity toward targeted chemicals. In this Review, we focus advancement electrocatalytic from monomers, dimers raw various value-added emphasis catalyst design, reaction innovation, mechanistic study. general strategies design are also summarized, offering insights enhancing selectivity. Finally, perspectives proposed.

Rhodium-catalyzed C–C bond alkenylation and arylation of α-branched N-sulfonyl amines

Organic Chemistry Frontiers, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 11(8), P. 2182 - 2188

Published: Jan. 1, 2024

In this work, we described a rhodium-catalyzed C–C bond cleavage of α-branched amines via β-carbon elimination, then formed five-membered rhodacycle intermediate, which can be captured by styrene(alkenylation) or silane(arylation).
