Abstract This work aims at elucidating some of the key steps of the oxidation pathways of lignin model compounds using Cu(II)-phenantroline as catalyst and hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. Phenolic and non-phenolic beta-O-4 dimeric phenyl propane structures were selected as lignin models since they represent the most abundant structures in lignin. <br> <br>The compounds used in this work are not commercially available; therefore all of them were synthesized. <br> <br>Oxidation reactions were carried out under alkaline conditions, at 80 degrees C for 3 h. The lignin model dimer (LMD) disappearance and some of the oxidation products were identified by HPLC analyses. <br> <br>Products as acetaldehyde, veratric or vanillic acid, and guaiacol were identified as resultant products of LMD oxidations. A tentative mechanism which involves the oxidation of the benzylic alcohol group followed by the cleavage of the beta-ether linkages is proposed.
