Protocols for the selective cleavage of carbon-sulfur bonds in coal. Technical report, December 1, 1991--February 29, 1992
Planned in this project ``Protocols for the Selective Cleavage of Carbon-Sulfur Bonds in Coal`` are reactions in which organic free radicals and/or organic anions are allowed to react with physically cleaned Illinois coal and sulfur-containing coal model compounds. This quarterly report contains the results of photooxidation of coal model compounds, namely, benzyl phenyl sulfide, phenylsulfide, dibenzothiophene, benzothiophene and thiophene, in the presence of 9,10-dicyanoanthracene or anthracene. Quantitative product analysis for the matrix of reactions whereby the coal model compounds are subjected to various solvents and temperature changes is presented in this quarterly report. Further quantitative analyses of the products are being undertaken.
