Title: Solubilization of coals by non-reductive alkylation in liquid ammonia

Conference · · Am. Chem. Soc., Div. Fuel Chem., Prepr.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6835660

The results of in-depth studies on non-reductive alkylation of five cretaceous and two carboniferous coals are presented. To assist in understanding of the chemical aspects of the non-reductive alkylation, which has been only marginally explored in organic chemistry, a considerable amount of work was carried out on alkylation of various model compounds (adamantane, indan, dibenzyl, diphenylmethane, 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene, 9,10-dihydroanthracene, fluorene, and acenaphthene).
