Abstract
A new set of hydrogen-donor compounds, cyclic olefins, has been evaluated to determine their effectiveness as hydrogen donors to coal. These cyclic olefins are hydroaromatic species that do not contain aromatic rings. The reactivity and hydrogen donability of these cyclic olefins have been compared to those of conventional hydroaromatics. The cyclic olefins under study are 1,4,5,8-tetrahydronaphthalene,also known as isotetralin, and 1,4,5,8,9,10-hexahydroanthracene. Cyclic olefins are much more reactive, releasing more hydrogen than their conventional hydroaromatic analogues, both with and without coal
