Catalytic carbon–carbon bond cleavage in lignin via manganese–zirconium-mediated autoxidation

Abstract Efforts to produce aromatic monomers through catalytic lignin depolymerization have historically focused on aryl–ether bond cleavage. A large fraction of aromatic monomers in lignin, however, are linked by various carbon–carbon (C–C) bonds that are more challenging to cleave and limit the y...
