Novel Gemini ionic liquid for oxidative desulfurization of gas oil.

ABSTRACT: The N₁,N₁,N₃,N₃-tetramethyl -N₁,N₃-diphenylpropane-1,3-diaminium dichloride ionic liquid (ILc) is an environmentally friendly catalyst for oxidative-extractive desulfurization of gas oil (sulfur content = 2400 ppm) in the presence of H₂O₂ as an oxidizing agent. The precise structure of the prepared IL was confirmed using FT-IR spectroscopy, and¹H-NMR. The reaction temperature, IL ratios, H₂O₂ dosage, and reaction time were studied to assess their effects on the desulfurization efficiency. The thermodynamic parameters of the oxidation reaction were determined. A desulfurization efficiency of 84.7% was obtained after the extractive desulfurization process using acetonitril
