Abstract
- One of the most attractive routes to valorize lignin is to prepare lignin-based materials which can be used as high-value products, such as dye absorbents. Various processes have been investigated to improve the properties of lignin. In this study, a hypervalent iodine reagent (III) was employed to achieve oxidative coupling of Kraft lignin (KL). The structural changes were investigated by FTIR, quantitative 31P NMR, 2D-HSQC, and GPC. Oxidative coupling between lignin aromatic C(sp2) H bonds and aromatic C(sp2)-H functionalization with aliphatic hydroxyl group occurred via inter- or intramolecular modes, with resultant decreases of the aromatic protons and hydroxyl groups. In addition, selective modification of aliphatic OH groups in β-O-4′ linkages occurred leading to the formation of aromatic carbonyl groups. Increases in molecular weights with the appearance of conjugated C O groups were also observed. The oxidative crosslinked lignin (KL-2.0) exhibited better adsorptive features for brilliant green (251.2 mg/g) than that of unmodified KL (59.4 mg/g). Their adsorption kinetics were investigated by pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and mixed-order models. Furthermore, the Langmuir and Freundlich models were employed to study the adsorption isotherms. Oxidative coupling of Kraft lignin between lignin C(sp2) H bonds and aromatic C(sp2) H functionalization with aliphatic hydroxyl groups was achieved by employing hypervalent iodine reagent (III), resulting an new oxidative cross-linked lignin with better adsorptive features for brilliant green (251.2 mg/g) than that of unmodified KL (59.4 mg/g). [Display omitted] • New oxidative coupling of lignin with high selectivity was achieved in the presence of hypervalent iodine reagent (PIFA). • The treatment of KL with PIFA appeared to selectively oxidize hydroxyl group in β-O-4′ linkages into carbonyl group. • The adsorption capacity of lignin for brilliant green has been significantly improved after oxidative coupling modification.
