lignin to novel, non-phenolic monoaromatic products based on the selective β-O-4 primary alcohol dehydrogenation with a Cp*Ir-bipyridonate catalyst complex under basic conditions. We show that this system is capable of promoting the depolymerisation of model compounds and isolated lignins via a sequence of selective primary alcohol dehydrogenation, retro-aldol (Cα–Cβ) bond cleavage and in situ stabilisation
