Abstract
The mechanism of the desulfurization of the polynuclear thiophene compounds with a Raney nickel was studied in ethanol at atmospheric pressure and from 0 to 78.3° C. The desulfurization rate was initially fast but reached zero in about 30 minutes. The major products were biphenyl in the desulfurization of dibenzothiophene (1), 1-phenylnaphthalene in the desulfurization of benzo [b] naphtho [1, 2-d] thiophene (2), and 2- ...
