Using of Benzotriazolium Iodide Ionic Liquids for Extractive Desulfurization of Model Diesel Oil

Abstract

Benzotraazolium-based ionic salts have been prepared with an alkyl group (methyl and allyl), with iodine anion, the prepared compound ([diMBt]I (1), [AMBt]I (2) and [AMBt]I3 (3) structure have determined by single crystal x-ray and they used for desulfurization of sulfur from model diesel oil in order to obtain reduced sulfur fuel with more environmental friendly properties. The prepared compounds were characterized using several techniques, and their efficiency in removing sulfur from the sample oil was evaluated. The results showed that the removal efficiency was acceptable and could be improved in future research.
