Five Czech coals of different rank (70.2, 71.5, 74.5, 75.0 and 83.3 wtT$, carbon) were heated at different temperatures in the range 25&85o"C and the contents of oxygen-containing functional groups (-OH, -COOH, =CO, -OCH,) were determined in the coals and carbonization residues. The coals and residues were subjected to pyrolysis chromatography at 740°C and the yields of phenol produced were measured. The dependence of the oxygen functions and the phenol yield on temperature and coal rank is discussed. In the coals studied, the most resistant oxygen groups appear to be hydroxyl and methoxyl; carboxyl and carbonyl oxygen are eliminated below 550°C.
