Abstract

A novel catalyst, based on iron-based redox ionic liquid modified mesoporous SBA-15 material was successfully prepared and applied to the removal of sulfur compounds in model oil. Sample structures were extensively studied by XRD, N2 adsorption–desorption, TEM, FTIR, DRS, and XPS analysis. This strategy provided a catalyst system with high surface area, high accessibility for substrate and oxidant. In the process of extractive catalytic oxidative desulfurization (ECODS) of model oil, [Omim]BF4 served as not only the extractant and the reaction media but also co-catalyst. Under the optimal conditions, the sulfur removal could reach 94.3%. The mechanism of the ECODS system was also proposed.
