Formation of pyrogallol ether during thermal oxidation of oak (Quercus iberica L.) lignin in the presence of air oxygen was investigated. A model reaction demonstrated that the substance identified by us as pyrogallol ether (1,2-dioxy-3-methoxybenzene) is derived from syringic aldehyde.

The gene for a previously unexplored two-domain laccase was identified in the genome of actinobacterium Streptomyces carpinensis VKM Ac-1300. The two-domain laccase, named ScaSL, was produced in a heterologous expression system (Escherichia coli strain M15 [pREP4]). The enzyme was purified to homogeneity using affinity chromatography.

Spray coatings have shown promising potential in preventing the uptake of smoke phenols from wildfires into wine grapes. Three cellulose nanofiber-based coatings with low methoxyl pectin or varying concentrations of chitosan were made into films and their potential for blocking, absorption, or adsorption of phenols (guaiacol, -cresol, and syringol) was evaluated using a custom-built smoke diffusion box. The coatings were also applied to Pinot noir grapes in a vineyard.

In this study, it was found that hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) can be an effective method for almond shell (AS) valorization. The severity of HTC treatment had a significant effect on hydrochar yields, with higher severity promoting carbonization but reducing yields. Furthermore, the work found that HTC treatment effectively demineralized biomass samples by removing inorganic material that could catalyze carbonization.

In this study, the selective adsorption of aromatic compounds on mesoporous MIL-53(Al) was investigated, and followed the order: Biphenyl (Biph) > Triclosan (TCS) > Bisphenol A (BPA) > Pyrogallol (Pyro) > Catechol (Cate) > Phenol (Phen), and exhibited high selectivity toward TCS in binary compounds. In addition to hydrophobicity and hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction/stacking predominated, and more evidently with double benzene rings. TCS-containing halogens could increase π interaction on the benzene rings via forming Cl-π stacking with MIL-53(Al).
