Metal-Dependent Control of Methoxy Retention versus Cleavage in Electrocatalytic Hydrogenation of Lignin-Derived Aromatics

Abstract Electrochemical hydrogenation of lignin-derived aromatics offers a route to biomass upgrading, but controlling methoxy retention versus cleavage remains challenging. Here, we compare carbon-supported Rh, Pt, Ru, and Pd catalysts for guaiacol conversion under identical co...
