Molecular design for physiologically active compounds from lignin by oxidative degradation

It is important that lignin convert to high value-added product for effective utilization. It is said that lignin has little physiologically activity, although the various polyphenols of similar structure to lignin, for example lignans, flavonoids, stilbene, have various physiologically activity. In this study the physiologically active compounds molecularly designed from lignin based on structure of high activity polyphenols. The objective...
