Oyubari coal (-100 mesh) extracted thoroughly with pyridine at 50°C and followed deashing was hydrogenated with tetralin in an antoclave under 50kg/cm
2 of the initial hydrogen pressure for 1 or 8 hours at 300-400°C in the presence or absence of ferric oxide.
Comparing the yields of the benzene-tetralin sluble fraction, the ultimate analyses and the It-spectra of the hydrogenated coals at various experimental conditions, it was concluded that ferric oxide suppressed hydrogenation or hydrogenolysis.
Such suppression increased with increasing amout of ferric oxide and, when the hydrogenation was carried out with 100% of ferric oxide to coal for 1 hour, not only suppression of hydro genation but also greater oxygen contents of hydrogenated coals that of original coal were observed.
On the other hand, ferric oxide was reduced to ferrous or metallic iron during hydrogenation, but these reduced irons were supposed not to promote hydrogenation of coal.
On hydrogenated coals, H
ar/C were as same as that of original coal, but H
al/C were increased, especially with increasing hydrogenation.
From these facts, it was considered that ferric oxide might not promote the hydrogenaticn or hydrogenolysis of the aliphatic bonds of coal.
