Abstract

Oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene and other sulfides in ionic liquid for model oil was investigated over molybdophosphate-based ionic liquid [hmim]3PMo12O40. Under the mild conditions, high desulfurization was obtained for dibenzothiophene (90%) and dialkyl sulfides (100%. The effects of catalyst, reaction temperature, and amount of H2O2 were investigated. The ionic liquid can be recycled 4 times without a significant decrease in activity.
