This study investigates the effectiveness of unsupported, precipitated transition metal sulfides as HYD and HDN catalysts in both a quinoline system and a coal liquefaction system. The transition metal sulfides of moderate surface areas were produced by a method developed by Chianelli and Dines in the late 1970's. These materials crystallize in weakly interacting layers which allow for ready intercalation of appropriate species. A number of different transition metal sulfides have been tested for HDS activity using dibenzothiophene and are good candidates for hydrodenitrogenation (HDN) studies. The degree of HYD and HDN of quinoline and the reaction products from coal liquefaction were determined using precipitated transition metal sulfides and compared to commercial transition metal sulfides, commercial hydrotreating catalysts such as CoMo/Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and NiMo/Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/, and platinum containing catalysts such as Pt/SiO/sub 2/ and PtS/sub 2/.
