The hydroaromatic compounds in three coal-derived synfuels were analyzed by GC/MS. Class specific isolation by adsorption/complexation column chromatography on picric acid columns was followed by isomer-specific characterization based on an analytical data base of GC retention indexes and mass and UV spectra generated from 139 hydroaromatic standard compounds. These results were interpreted in terms of the liquefaction process chemistry. 22 references, 5 figures, 1 table.
