Abstract
Quick and easy: An effective and efficient method was developed for the oxidation and cleavage of lignin model compounds using easily prepared and environmentally friendly MoO2Cl2(DMSO)2 as catalyst under microwave irradiation. Owing to the broad scope of this oxidation system and the insight gleaned with regard to its mechanism, this strategy could be adapted and applied in a general sense to the production of useful aromatic chemicals from phenolics and lignin.
