Furthermore, we managed to produce a lignin preparation of a very high yield, above 90%, with high purity and minimal structural degradation. This was achieved by dissolution and regeneration of milled wood prior to enzymatic hydrolysis, along with the use of 80% dioxane for lignin extraction. This preparation (RCEL-80) yield was about 4.5 and 2.5 times higher than the yields of the traditional MWL and CEL preparations, correspondingly, at the same milling time. The preparations obtained were comprehensively analyzed with state-of-the-art quantitative NMR techniques and wet chemistry methods. CELs were representative preparations for hardwood lignins as the S/G ratios in the CELs were equivalent to those in lignin in situ. Degradation of the main lignin subunits was very low. Importantly, the structures of CELs were independent of the preparation yield and were very similar to the structure of the high-yield lignin, RCEL-80. In contrast, the structures of MWLs were noticeably dependent on the preparation yield, especially when the yield was below 15–20% of total wood lignin. In particular, the S/G ratio increased with increasing MWL yield, but was still lower than the S/G ratios of the whole lignins in situ, even at high MWL yields. The amounts of β-O-4 lignin units in MWL were lower than those in the corresponding CEL preparations. It has been concluded that CEL preparations were representative of the whole wood lignin whereas MWLs represent a fraction with a lower S/G ratio.}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF WOOD CHEMISTRY AND TECHNOLOGY}, author={Capanema, Ewellyn and Balakshin, Mikhail and Katahira, Rui and Chang, Hou-min and Jameel, Hasan}, year={2015}, pages={17–26} }

Milled wood lignin (MWL) was isolated from each species using a modified protocol and all milled wood lignin preparations were analyzed through quantitative (13)C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, methoxyl analysis, sugar analysis, and nitrobenzene oxidation. Nitrobenzene oxidation and ozonation were carried out on extractive-free wood, alkali-extracted wood, milled wood lignin, and alkali-extracted lignin. Milled wood lignin isolated by the modified protocol was found to be representative of the total lignin in alkali-extracted wood. Significant variations in lignin structures, such as syringylpropane/guaiacylpropane ratio (S/G ratio), arylglycerol-β-aryl ether (β-O-4), degree of condensation, and elemental and methoxyl contents, were found among the hardwood species studied. These structural variations among species appear to be correlated to a single factor, the syringyl/guaiacyl ratio. A new method to predict the S/G ratio of total lignin in wood was developed, using a calibration line established by the syringaldehyde/vanillin (S/V) ratio (nitrobenzene oxidation) and the S/G ratio ((13)C NMR) of milled wood lignin (MWL).}, number={19}, journal={JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY}, author={Santos, Ricardo B. and Capanema, Ewellyn A. and Balakshin, Mikhail Yu and Chang, Hou-min and Jameel, Hasan}, year={2012}, month={May}, pages={4923–4930} }

Crude milled wood lignin (MWLc), LCC extracted from MWLc with acetic acid (LCC-AcOH) and cellulolytic enzyme lignin (CEL) preparations were isolated from loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) and white birch (Betula pendula) woods and characterized using this methodology on a routine 300 MHz NMR spectrometer and on a 950 MHz spectrometer equipped with a cryogenic probe. Structural variations in the pine and birch LCC preparations of different types (MWL, CEL and LCC-AcOH) were elucidated. The use of the high field NMR spectrometer equipped with the cryogenic probe resulted in a remarkable improvement in the resolution of the LCC signals and, therefore, is of primary importance for an accurate quantification of LCC linkages. The preparations investigated showed the presence of different amounts of benzyl ether, γ-ester and phenyl glycoside LCC bonds. Benzyl ester moieties were not detected. Pine LCC-AcOH and birch MWLc preparations were preferable for the analysis of phenyl glycoside and ester LCC linkages in pine and birch, correspondingly, whereas CEL preparations were the best to study benzyl ether LCC structures. The data obtained indicate that pinewood contains higher amounts of benzyl ether LCC linkages, but lower amounts of phenyl glycoside and γ-ester LCC moieties as compared to birch wood.}, number={6}, journal={PLANTA}, author={Balakshin, Mikhail and Capanema, Ewellyn and Gracz, Hanna and Chang, Hou-min and Jameel, Hasan}, year={2011}, month={Jun}, pages={1097–1110} }

The resulting N‐modified lignins were analyzed for elemental composition and methoxyl group content. An increase in ammonium hydroxide concentration increased the rate of nitrogen incorporation, oxygen consumption, CO2 formation, and lignin dissolution. The rate of nitrogen incorporation was 0.5 order with respect to NH4OH concentration. The amount of oxygen consumed, oxygen incorporated into the lignin, CO2 formed, and OMe groups eliminated per mole of nitrogen incorporated decreased with increasing ammonium hydroxide concentration indicating that the increase in [NH4OH] accelerated nitrogen incorporation more than lignin oxidation. The dependence of the rate of nitrogen incorporation on the reaction pH went through a maximum leading to the conclusion that HO− competes with ammonia in reactions with electrophilic lignin centers resulting in interruption of nitrogen incorporation into the lignin.}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF WOOD CHEMISTRY AND TECHNOLOGY}, author={Capanema, EA and Balakshin, MY and Chen, CL and Gratzl, JS}, year={2006}, pages={95–109} }

The resulting bleached pulp was hydrolyzed with cellulase to obtain insoluble and soluble residual lignins. The alkaline bleaching effluents were acidified to precipitate alkaline-soluble lignins. These lignin preparations were then characterized by 2D heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence (HMQC) NMR spectroscopic techniques. The results showed that biphenyl (5-5) and stilbene structures of the residual lignin in the pulp are preferentially degraded in both the C1- and C2-catalyzed bleachings, whereas beta-O-4, beta-5, and beta-beta structures undergo degradation to a lesser extent. In both cases, the degradation of the residual lignin increased with the increase in reaction temperature from 60 to 80 degrees C. Thus, the result of C1-catalyzed delignification is not in agreement with the observed decrease in the disappearance rate for substrates in the C1-catalyzed oxidation of lignin model compounds with hydrogen peroxide when the reaction temperature is increased from 60 to 80 degrees C. In addition, the resulting residual lignins in the C2-catalyzed bleaching at 80 degrees C are less degraded than the corresponding lignins in the C1-catalyzed bleaching at both 60 and 80 degrees C.

The very high dispersion of HMQC spectra allows identification of different lignin moieties, which signals appear overlapped in 1D (13)C NMR spectra.
