Determination of Eucalyptus spp lignin S/G ratio: A comparison between methods

Abstract: The syringyl/guaiacyl ratio was determined for six different Eucalyptus spp. wood clones cultivated in four regions in Brazil. The determinants were made by pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GC-MS) and the results were compared with those obtained by alkaline nitrobenzene oxidation method. The S/G ratios were obtained considering all the identified lignin derivatives in the pyrograms and also using two groups of markers. The first group of markers consisted of guaiacol, 4-methylguaiacol, 4-vin… Show more

“…The S/G value of gmelina was slightly higher than bamboo's. It has been noted that the predominance of syringyl over guaiacyl in woods promotes high pulp yield and such biomass are easy to be delignified (Nunes et al 2010). …”

“…Estes compostos foram previamente identificados em madeira de eucaliptos cultivados no Brazil 4-6 e em outros países. 2,22,23 Os compostos foram identificados pela comparação de seus espectros de massa com os da biblioteca Willey 333,000, com dados da literatura [3][4][5][6]8,23 e, quando necessário, por fragmentografia de massas.…”

“…5,25 Os compostos derivados de lignina do tipo siringil apresentaram-se mais numerosos que os do tipo guaiacil, como já observado em outros estudos deste tipo de madeira. [4][5][6] Não foram observados derivados de lignina do tipo p-hidroxifenil e de extrativos, devido provavelmente às suas baixas concentrações no tipo de amostra analisado.…”

“…Therefore, there is differential microbial degradation rate that is dependent on the chemical composition of the lignin. Methoxylated syringyl units make hardwood lignin more readily hydrolyzed during pulping (Chiang & Funaoka, 1990;Nunes et al, 2010). On the other hand, p-hydroxyphenyl units without methoxy groups tend to be hydrophobic, which property increases the chemical inertness of lignin to ligninase (Kirk & Farrell, 1987).…”
