This project focuses on developing new catalysts to convert lignin-derived compounds into aromatic building blocks for pharmaceuticals and plastics. It aims to create bimetallic catalysts that effectively break down complex biopolymers while preserving valuable functional groups.
Aromatic building blocks are essential for the production of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and plastics but are mainly produced from finite fossil resources.
Lignin, a complex biopolymer that is rich in aromatic rings, can serve as a renewable source for aromatic base chemicals.
Significant advances towards the depolymerization of lignin now give access to a plethora of small aromatic compounds with a variety of valuable functional groups.
However, current catalyst systems are unable to convert the…
