The use of vanillin as a building block for the chemical industry is discussed in this article. Vanillin is currently one of the only molecular phenolic compounds manufactured on an industrial scale from biomass. It has thus the potential to become a key-intermediate for the synthesis of bio-based polymers, for which aromatic monomers are needed to reach good thermo-mechanical properties. After a first part dedicated to the current sourcing of vanillin, this article focuses on the alkaline oxidation lignin-to-vanillin process, reporting advantages and limits, discusses the various postdepolymerization methods for product isolation and finally examines the outlook for the wider use of vanillin as a key building block for the chemical industry.
