Lignin depolymerization through an oxidation method could provide value-added products, but it is challenging in terms of recovering catalysts or separating products in time to avoid over-oxidation In this study, a process of selectively oxidative degradation of lignin model compounds was operated in a two-phase reaction system. Lignin model compounds of 4-benzyloxyphenol (PBP) or guaiacylglycerol-β-guaiacyl ether (GGE) in a bottom phase of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole chloride ([BMIM]Cl) ionic liquid were selectively oxidized by H2O2 in the presence of a solid acid (SO42-/Fe2O3-ZrO2), and the degradation products immediately diffused into the upper organic solvent phase (Bu acetate). In this kind of reaction system, the yield of the products was improved due to the prolonged life of ·OH in ionic liquid, and the product selectivity was maintained due to the timely product separation, and the ionic liquid and the catalyst were easily recycled. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 4-Benzyloxyphenol (cas: 103-16-2Related Products of 103-16-2).
4-Benzyloxyphenol (cas: 103-16-2) belongs to ethers. Esters are also usually derived from carboxylic acids. It may also be obtained by reaction of acid anhydride or acid halides with alcohols or by the reaction of salts of carboxylic acids with alkyl halides. Esters are more polar than ethers but less polar than alcohols. They participate in hydrogen bonds as hydrogen-bond acceptors, but cannot act as hydrogen-bond donors, unlike their parent alcohols. This ability to participate in hydrogen bonding confers some water-solubility.Related Products of 103-16-2
