Description
Catalytic aerobic oxidation has the potential to serve as a platform technology for conversion of lignin, waste plastics, and other organic matter into valuable feedstocks that could be integrated within the chemical economy, replacing fossil fuels and upcycling plastics. This talk will survey our efforts to develop catalytic aerobic oxidation methods for selective deconstruction of natural and synthetic polymers into useful building blocks.
