Integrated Conversion of Lignocellulosic Biomass to Bio‐Based Amphiphiles using a Functionalization‐Defunctionalization Approach Open
Concerns over the sustainability and end‐of‐life properties of fossil‐derived surfactants have driven interest in bio‐based alternatives. Lignocellulosic biomass with its polar functional groups is an obvious feedstock for surfactant produ…

Controlling lignin solubility and hydrogenolysis selectivity by acetal-mediated functionalization Open
Aldehyde assisted fractionation of biomass produces an acetal-stabilised lignin that is fully upgradeable. We exploit the aldehyde to control the lignin's physical properties, producing lignins that can be soluble in both polar and apolar …

Sustainable polyesters via direct functionalization of lignocellulosic sugars Open
The development of sustainable plastics from abundant renewable feedstocks has been limited by the complexity and efficiency of their production as well as their lack of competitive material properties. Here, we demonstrate the direct tran…

Ternary Alloys Enable Efficient Production of Methoxylated Chemicals via Selective Electrocatalytic Hydrogenation of Lignin Monomers Open
We explore the selective electrocatalytic hydrogenation of lignin monomers to methoxylated chemicals, of particular interest, when powered by renewable electricity. Prior studies, while advancing the field rapidly, have so far lacked the n…

Selective electrocatalytic hydrogenation of bio-oil to oxygenated chemicals via suppression of deoxygenation Open
Catalytic hydrogenation of bio-oil provides an avenue to produce renewable chemicals. To this end, electrocatalytic hydrogenation is especially interesting when powered using low-carbon electricity; however, it has to date lacked the neede…

Diformylxylose as a new polar aprotic solvent produced from renewable biomass Open
Xylose-derived diformylxylose (DFX) can be produced in a single step from biomass. Here, we show that DFX can act as a novel polar aprotic bio-based solvent similar to DMF, NMP, and DMSO in alkylation, cross-coupling, and hydrogenation rea…

Aldehyde-Assisted Fractionation Enhances Lignin Valorization in Endocarp Waste Biomass Open
Endocarp biomass, which forms much of the inedible portion of nuts and stone fruits, is a promising feedstock for aromatic chemical production due to its high lignin content and because it is a food industry waste. Here, we tested the nut …
