Characteristics of chemical structure of lignin biopolymer from Araucaria relict plant. Questions and answers of evolution.

Abstract:

:New details of chemical structure of Araucaria lignin are the focus of this paper, since Araucaria is a relict plant which fossils are dated by the Permian period. Quantitative chemical analysis, FTIR, EPR and 2D NMR spectroscopies, Py-GC/MS and nitrobenzene oxidation have been used to characterize the Araucaria lignin. This work highlighted the structural features of the lignin of Araucaria, which distinguish it from modern coniferous (gymnosperm) lignins. This lignin exhibits pronounced paramagnetic properties with the concentration of paramagnetic centers of 3.0 × 1017 spin/g, the value of g-factor of 2.0036 corresponds to the phenoxyl radical. The Araucaria lignin is apparently unique since it does not belong to the known G, GS or GSH types. For the first time it was quantitatively proven that he lignin of Araucaria was assigned to compositionally heterogeneous GH lignins, which is not typical for modern lignins.
