Abstract
A thorough understanding of the lignin-carbohydrate complex (LCC) structure has a significant meaning in the high-value utilization of lignocellulose. In this work, the complex (DHPKGC) was obtained by an addition reaction between konjac glucomannan (KGM) and quinone methides generated in the synthesis of dehydrogenation polymers (DHPs) to simulate the formation of LCCs. The effect of pH on the prepared DHPKGC was investigated. The structure of the DHPKGC was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), 13C-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (13C-NMR), and two-dimensional Heteronuclear Single Quantum Coherence Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (2D HSQC NMR) analyses. The results indicated the pH of 4.0 was conducive to the polymerization reaction between DHPs and oxidized KGM by the TEMPO/NaClO/NaBr system. In addition, the resultant DHPKGC was connected by benzyl ester linkages. Overall, this study aims to gain greater insight into the process of LCC formation in plants.
期刊介绍:
Molecules (ISSN 1420-3049, CODEN: MOLEFW) is an open access journal of synthetic organic chemistry and natural product chemistry. All articles are peer-reviewed and published continously upon acceptance. Molecules is published by MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Our aim is to encourage chemists to publish as much as possible their experimental detail, particularly synthetic procedures and characterization information. There is no restriction on the length of the experimental section. In addition, availability of compound samples is published and considered as important information. Authors are encouraged to register or deposit their chemical samples through the non-profit international organization Molecular Diversity Preservation International (MDPI). Molecules has been launched in 1996 to preserve and exploit molecular diversity of both, chemical information and chemical substances.
