The structural analysis of coal-derived oil by 13C-NMR method has been attempted. The aromatic region in the spectra of coal-derived oils can be divided into three groups, each being assignable to protonated, bridge head, and substituted carbons. The chemical shift ranges of these carbons are determined on the basis of the chemical shift data of model compounds and the characteristic 13C-NMR spectra of ring-type fractions (monocyclic, bicyclic, tri- and tetracyclic aromatics, and polycyclic aromatics and polar aromatics) of coal-derived oil.
The chemical shift ranges of these carbons are (115.0)-129.2 ppm for protonated carbon, 129.2-132.5 ppm for bridge head carbon, 132.5-(149.2) ppm for substituted carbon. Based on the concept of Brown-Ladner method, three structural parameters (fa, Hau/Ca, σ) are defined by the following equations;
fa=Ca/total carbon
Hau/Ca=(Ca-Cb)/Ca
σ=Cs/(Ca-Cb)
where Ca is the amout of aromatic carbon and Cb the amount of bridge head carbon and Cs the amount of substituted carbon. The structural parameters calculated by the above equations and the Brown-Ladner method were compared and discussed. The assignments of aliphatic carbons a to aromatic rings were made.
