- Abstract
Breaking point: An effective reductive cleavage of inert aryl CO bonds with an inexpensive iron catalyst has been developed. During this process, the reduction of the arene rings was not observed. This catalytic system also enabled the selective cleavage of the β‐O‐4 linkage of lignin model compounds under an atmosphere of hydrogen, thus offering an opportunity for the depolymerization of lignin.
