Six coniferyl alcohol-coniferaldehyde dehydrogenation copolymers (DHcoPs) were synthesized in order to determine the influence of an increased number of aldehyde functions on hydrolysis. After heterogeneous hydrolysis using acidic Montmorillonite K10 clay, the DHcoPs were thioacidolyzed and analyzed by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Comparison of the thioacidolyzed products, with and without the hydrolysis step, showed that there was a greater proportion of condensation reaction in the absence of aldehyde. When the coniferaldehyde content in the initial synthetic mixture was more than 30% (w/w), only a low fraction of condensed products was generated during the K10 clay hydrolysis step. This suggests that condensation pathways are mainly due to the alcohol present in the γ-position in the DHcoPs. Investigation of the reactivity and the potential condensation of aldehyde and alcohol monomers under hydrolysis conditions showed the important conversion of coniferyl alcohol and conversely the stability of coniferaldehyde.
