Abstract

A series of 0-1 lignin model compounds was synthesized and then oxidized with ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in aqueous acetonitrile. The compounds studied were 1, 2- diarylethanols with either a p-hydroxy (la-e) or a p-methoxy (2a-e) on the 1-ring and the following para substituenb on the 2-ring:(a) H,(b) C1,(c) Me,(d) OMe, and (e) NOP. Reactions of p-hydroxyl compounds la-e with CAN resulted in the formation of a red ...
