Immobilized methyltrioxo rhenium (MTO)/H2O2 systems for the oxidation of lignin and lignin model compounds
摘要:
A convenient and efficient application of heterogeneous methylrhenium trioxide (MTO) systems for the selective oxidation of lignin model compounds and lignins is reported. Environmental friendly and low-cost H2O2 was used as the oxygen atom donor. Overall, the data presented and discussed in this paper point toward the conclusion that the immobilized heterogeneous catalytic systems based on H2O2/and MTO catalysts are able to extensively oxidize both phenolic and non-phenolic, monomeric, and dimeric, lignin model compounds. Condensed diphenylmethane models were found also extensively oxidized. Technical lignins, such as hydrolytic sugar cane lignin (SCL) and red spruce kraft lignin (RSL), displayed oxidative activity with immobilized MTO catalytic systems. After oxidation, these lignins displayed the formation of more soluble lignin fragments with a high degree of degradation as indicated by the lower contents of aliphatic and condensed OH groups, and the higher amounts of carboxylic acid moieties. Our data indicate that immobilized MTO catalytic systems are significant potential candidates for the development of alternative totally chlorine-free delignification processes and environmentally sustainable lignin selective modification reactions.

The oxidative degradation of lignin under totally chlorine free conditions is one of the most relevant targets for the design of environmental friendly pulping and bleaching industrial processes. Methyltrioxorhenium was found a powerful and promising catalyst for the oxidation of both phenolic and non-phenolic lignin model compounds by use of hydrogen peroxide as primary oxidant. Three different technical lignins, hydrolytic sugar cane lignin (SCL), red spruce kraft lignin (RSL) and a hardwood organo-solvent lignin (OSL), that are representative examples of widely diffused para-hydroxyphenyl-guaiacyl, guaiacyl and guaiacyl-syringyl lignins, were also extensively degraded under similar experimental conditions.
