Abstract
A critical review is presented of the applications of theoretical meth ods to the studies of the structure and chemical reactivity of lignin, including simulation of macromolecular properties, conformational cal culations, quantum chemical analyses of electronic structure, spectra and chemical reactivity. Modern concepts of spatial organization and c hemical reactivity of lignins are discussed.
