Heteronuclear probes of coal structure and reactivity. Quarterly report, July--September 1993
The most exciting finding in this quarter is the quantitative removal of sulfur from Illinois No. 6 coal using PBu{sub 3}. In previous quarterly reports we described the removal of 92% sulfur by refluxing a suspension of Illinois No. 6 in PBu{sub 3} for two days. The secret for quantitative removal (98.7%, run 1 in Table I) is to place the coal sample under vacuum, then adding the PBu{sub 3} while the sample is still under vacuum and finally raising the pressure of the system to atmospheric with an inert gas before refluxing for two days.
