Lignin is perhaps the most complex natural polymer present in terrestrial plants. Characterization of lignin is important and challenging because of the significance (in various fields) and complexity (compositional and structural) of lignin. The DFRC method was developed as an analytical procedure for lignin characterization that differed from the existing hydrolytic methods. It operates via selective cleavage of the most important β–O–4-linkages in lignin, producing monomers and dimers for ready analysis by GC or GC-MS. It has been used for the characterization (compositional and structural) determination of lignins, including for structural identification in the area of lignin biosynthesis, delineating biochemical processes in lignocellulosics (including in various mutant and transgenic plant lines), and in food plant research. One unique feature is that lignin γ-esters (naturally occurring in many plant species) are not cleaved during the protocol so that natural lignin acylation can be detected. A modified version of the DFRC method has even been used to detect naturally occurring acetates on lignin. Detection and identification of the unique β–β-coupled DFRC dimers bearing γ-acetates that derive from non-resinol tetrahydrofuran structures in kenaf lignin confirmed that acetylated lignins result from the participation of the pre-acetylated monolignols, primarily sinapyl γ-acetate. Furthermore, in combination with other analytical tools, DFRC analysis has provided informative data about lignin structures and the lignin biosynthetic pathway.
