Abstract

Correction for ‘Spruce milled wood lignin: linear, branched or cross-linked?’ by Mikhail Balakshin et al., Green Chem., 2020, 22, 3985–4001, DOI: 10.1039/D0GC00926A.


Following publication of this manuscript, the authors note the following errors:

In Fig. 9, unit 22′ should contain a hydroxyl group at the γ position and not an aldehyde. Unit 21′′′ should have a CH2 group at the α position and not a carbonyl.

Fig. 9 Tentative quantitative structural model of spruce MWL, in agreement with currently available structural data on lignin moieties and their occurrence frequencies. Dashed bond: different structures agreeing with available information; the exact structure of the Alk-O-Alk moieties (units 2–9, 3–12, 13–14) is not well defined, therefore the model indicates a general type of units rather than insisting on a precise structure. Minor structures (below 4/100 Ar) are given in the dotted boxes.

The corrected figure is as given in this Correction.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
