Lignin pyrolysis is a significant impediment in forming liquid fuel from biomass. Lignin pyrolyzes at a higher temperature than other biomass components (ie cellulose and hemicellulose) and tends to form radicals which lead to crosslinking and ultimately char formation. A primary step in advancing biomass-to-fuel technol. will be to discover mechanisms that can disassemble lignin at lower temperatures and depolymerize lignin into more stable products. We have studied the thermochem. of the various inter-linkage units found in lignin (β-O4, α-O4, β-β, β-O5, etc.) using electronic structure calculations at the M06-2x/6-311++G(d,p) on a series of dimer model compounds In addition to the usually-assumed bond homolysis reactions, we have studied a variety of concerted elimination pathways that will tend to produce closed-shell stable products. Such a bottom-up approach could aid in the targeted development of catalysts that produce more desirable products under less severe reactor conditions.
