Technical Abstract:
The mechansim by which lignification, the polymerization process by which lignins are formed, is via combinatorial radical coupling reactions. Understanding such reactions allows the range of structures in lignins to be understood, and the ability of lignins to accommodate various phenolic precursors can be rationalized.
