“…118,199,211,215 Noteworthy, lignin etherication is a reversible reaction and native-like lignin structures may be obtained by subjecting etheried lignin to mildly acidic conditions. Lignin stabilization by aliphatic alcohols was reported to be an effective strategy for protecting lignin against repolymerization during pretreatment, 17,213,214,216 ultimately opening the way to the successful downstream conversion of lignin to chemicals. 118,211,213,[215][216][217][218] A great advantage offered by organosolv pretreatment compared to other fractionation methods is the possibility of producing three separate product streams: a celluloseenriched pulp, an aqueous fraction enriched with hemicellulose derivatives (e.g.…”
