The present paper describes a study of the photochemical kinetics and its oxidation mechanism of DBT. The photolysis of DBT in aqueous solution media have shown to have significant oxidation activities for the photolytic desulfurization of DBT. The oxidation effect was more pronounced in 4 % NaCl solution. A mechanism was proposed that the desulfurization process arise from the substution of sulfur by the hydroxyl radicals in different aqueous medium.

A convenient method for the synthesis of ibuproxam, which is a non steroidal antiinflammatory agent, is reported. Friedel-Crafts reaction of isobutylbenzene with ethyl $\alpha$-chloro-$\alpha$-(methylthio)acetate (3) gives ethyl $\alpha$-methylthio-(p-isobutylpheny) acetate (4). Ethyl 2-methylthio-2-(4-isobutylphenyl) propionate (5) is obtained from methylation of the compound (4) with NaH and Mel. lbuproxam (7) is easily synthesized by reductive desulfurization of the compound (5) with zinc dust-acetic acid or Raney nickel, followed by treatment of the resultant ethyl 2-(4-isobutyl-pheny) propionate (6) with H$_{2}$NOH-HCI.

A new method for the synthesis of butibufen, which is a non steroidal anti-iriflammatory agent, is described. Friedel-Crafts reaction of isobutylbenzene with ethyl $\alpha$-chloro-.alpha.-(methylthio) acetate (1) gives ethyl $\alpha$-methylthio-(p-isobutylphenyl)acetate (2). Ethyl 2-methylthio-2-(4-isobutylphenyl)butyrate (3) is obtained from treatment of the compound (2) with NaH and Etl. Butibufen (5) is synthesized by reductive desulfurization of the compound (3) with zinc dust-acetic acid or Raney nickel, followed by hydrolysis of the resultant ethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)butyrate (4).

A microorganism which can desulfurize dibenzothiophene (DBT) to 2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP) was isolated from coal samples. The rate of DBT desulfurization was enhanced by the presence of yeast extract. In the case of DBT desulfurization by resting cells the rate and extent of 2-HBP production was enhanced with the addition of Tween 80.

Friedel-Crafts reaction of fluorene with methyl ${\alpha}$-chloro-${\alpha}$-(methylthio)acetate 1 gave methyl $\alpha$-methylthio-2-fluoreneacetate 2. Cicloprofen 8, a potent antiinflammatory agent, was prepared by methylation of 2 followed by reductive desulfurization of methyl 2(2-fluorenyl)-2-(methylthio)propionate 6 and hydrolysis of methyl 2-(2-fluorenyl)propionate 7.

The developments on desulfurization have been focused on the application to the advanced power generation systems such as integrated gasification-combined cycle (lGCC) and the gasification-molten carbonate fuel ceil (MCFC). The gas produced from the coal gasification contains H$_2$S and other hazardous sulfur compounds, which must be removed to avoid corrosion and environmental problems. (omitted)

A new synthetic method for bufexamac, which is a potent anti-inflammatory agent, was described. Friedel-Crafts reaction of butoxybenzene (2) with ethyl ${\alpha}-chloro-{\alpha}-(methylthio)acetate$ (1) gave ethyl 2-methylthio-2-(p-butoxyphenyl) acetate (3). Ethyl 2-(p-butoxyphenyl)acetate (4) was prepared by desulfurization of compound (3) with zinc dust-acetic acid. Bufexamac (5) could be easily synthesized by treatment of compound (4) with hydroxylamine HCl.

The efficient synthesis of p-(acetylamino)phenylacetic acid(7), a antirheumatic agent, is reported. Methyl phenylacetate(3) was prepared from Friedel- Crafts reaction of benzene with methyl ${\alpha}$-chloro-${\alpha}$-(methylthio)acetate(1) followed by reductive desulfurization with zinc dust in acetic acid. Compound(7) was obtained from 3 by a sequence of nitration, reduction, N-acylation, and hydrolysis.

Reactive adsorption desulfurization (RADS) experiments were conducted over a series of commercial metal oxide supports ($Al_2O_{3-}$, $SiO_{2-}$, $TiO_{2-}$ and $ZrO_{2-}$) supported Ni/ZnO adsorbents. The adsorbents were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) in order to find out the influence of specific types of surface chemistry and structural characteristics on the sulfur adsorptive capacity. The desulfurization performance of all the studied adsorbents decreased in the following order: Ni/ZnO-$TiO_2$ > Ni/ZnO-$ZrO_2$ > Ni/ZnO-$SiO_2$ > Ni/ZnO-$Al_2O_3$. Ni/ZnO-$TiO_2$ shows the best performance and the three hour sulfur capacity can achieve 12.34 mg S/g adsorbent with a WHSV of $4h^{-1}$. Various characterization techniques suggest that weak interaction between active component and support component, high dispersion of NiO and ZnO, high reducibility and large total Lewis acidity of the adsorbents are important factors in achieving better RADS performance.

The desulfurization process which belongs to the gas refining part is the unit process that eliminates $H_2S$ and COS in the coal gas formed by the coal gasification part in the integrated gasification combined cycle(IGCC). In this study, natural manganese ores were selected as the raw material of the desulfurization sorbent due to economical efficiency. Initial rates for the reactions between $H_2S$ and desulfurization sorbent using natural manganese ores were determined in a temperature range of $400{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ using a thermobalance reactor. All reactions were first order with respect to $H_2S$ and were in accord with the Arrhenius equations. When sulfidation reaction was controlled by diffusion, the temperature dependence of the effective diffusivity was given by the Arrhenius equation. Activation energies and frequency factors were obtained from the product layer diffusion coefficient of various sorbents by plotting as Arrhenius equation form.
