Abstract

Results Hydrogenations and Formylation. Products and yields from the treatment of several nitrogen heterocycles or anthracene with Fe (C0I5 under WGS conditions are listed in Table I. Product structures are illustrated in Chart I. Conditions were selected to optimize either the WGS reaction at 150 OC5 or coal liquefaction at 300 OC. la Control experiments demonstrate that among all the
