Previous oxidation experiments with bituminous coal have produced fluorenone, benzophenone and anthraquinone carboxylic acids. Precursors to these acids were speculated to be fluorene, diphenylmethane, anthracene and 9,10-dihydroanthracene derivatives. Oxidation experiments suggested that polymethyl

✦ Synopsis
Some insight into the chemical nature of coals and the coalification process was obtained by detailed analyses of the organic constituents of three coals -a lignite, a bituminous, and an anthracite coal. Organic compounds trapped in the coal matrix, residuals and products of the original coalification process, were isolated by vacuum distillation and solvent extraction. The macromolecular material which constitutes the bulk of coals was degraded by a series of selective oxidations to smaller units which could be identified and measured. The essential aromatic character of coals was demonstrated, with condensation of aromatic rings increasing with increasing rank.

## Abstract Detailed synthetic aspects of new aromatic polyethers containing oxadiazole units are described. They are obtained by the nucleophilic displacement reaction of 2,2‐bis(4‐hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane with 2,5‐bis(4‐fluorophenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole and 2,5‐bis(4‐fluoronaphthyl)‐1,3,4‐oxa
Steam cracking in the presence of haematite catalyst was used for the upgrading of coal hydrogenation liquids with b.p.< 350°C. The degree of conversion to light hydrocarbon fractions was influenced by the process temperature and reached 50 wt% at 470°C. The study of transformation of individual com
