Popis: | The need for renewable bioenergy sources has renewed interest in lignin chemistry; however, structural elucidation and characterization of lignin degradation products remain a challenge because of lack of effective analytical methods. The analysis of lignin oligomers has been accomplished by simple deprotonation of weakly acidic phenolic moieties using NaOH and analyzed in a negative ESI mass spectrometry. Although simple deprotonation works to produce excellent results for many types of lignin compounds, others can undergo extensive in-source fragmentation for certain bond types making structural elucidation more complicated. Herein, we present an alternative method for analyzing lignin model compounds using chloride adduct chemistry. In this study, nine β-O-4 dimers, an (4-Ο-α)(β-Ο-4) trimer, and a (β-O-4)(β-O-4) trimer were synthesized and analyzed using chloride adduct mass spectrometry in the negative mode using NH4Cl as the chloride source. Stable chloride adducted molecular ions were observed for a... |
