New direction : Changes in the ligand structure divert the reactivity of vanadium(V) oxo complexes from alcohol oxidation to a novel non‐oxidative CO bond cleavage. Thus, highly functionalized aryl enones can be selectively generated from lignin model compounds by vanadium‐catalyzed cleavage of the β‐O‐4 linkage (see scheme; N blue, O red).
