Effect of Reaction Medium on the Yield and Composition of the Products of the Liquid-Phase Ozonization of Brown Coal

摘要

The effect of solvent polarity on the yield and composition of the ozonization products of brown coal from the Balakhtinskoe deposit was studied. The greatest yield of soluble oxygen-containing products was obtained upon ozonization in polar solvents-glacial acetic acid and acetone. The application of chlorinated solvents and lower alcohols, including their aqueous solutions, was less effective.
