Abstract
⺠We report the effect of ammonia concentration and pretreatment temperature on delignification of miscanthus. ⺠The 2D NMR spectra indicate that ammonia pretreatment leads to de-acetylation of the xylan-backbone. ⺠The β-O-4Ⲡlinked aryl ether linkages remain the most abundant linkage in pretreated miscanthus. ⺠Infrared spectra indicate the disappearance of ester-linkages after aqueous ammonia pretreatment.
