FeCl3-based ionic liquid [Bmim]Br/FeCl3 with lower viscosity was synthesized and its structure was character-ized with FT-IR spectroscopy. The denitrogenation performance of the ionic liquid was investigated using the Fushun shale diesel fraction with high nitrogen content. Experimental results showed that the ionic liquid presented good denitrogenation performance and the basic N and total N removal efficiency can reach 95.29% and 89.77% under conditions covering a tem-perature of 30 ℃, an IL/oil mass ratio of 1:1, an extraction time of 30 min, and a settling time of 2 h. Correspondingly, the basic N and total N contents in shale diesel fraction dropped from the original 5454 μg/g and 9832 μg/g to 257 μg/g and 1006 μg/g, respectively. In addition, the basic-N removal efficiency can still reach 60% at an IL/oil mass ratio of 1:7 during four recycles of the ionic liquid.
