Identification of Dihydroxy Aromatic Compounds in a Low-Temperature Pyrolysis Coal Tar by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry (FT-ICR MS)

[摘要]：Dihydroxy aromatics in coal tar undergo rapid coupling reactions with each other and with some coal-derived species during coal pyrolysis and liquefaction. However, only limited information on the structure of dihydroxy aromatics is known. In this study. Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were used to characterize the dihydroxy aromatics in a low-temperature pyrolyzed coal tar and its distillate and residue fractions. Negative-ion electrospray ionization (ESI) FT-ICR MS spectra of coal-tar-derived samples had low molecular masses and narrow mass ranges. Negative-ion ESI is extremely selective for the dihydroxy aromatics present in coal tar. The O-2 class species had the highest ion intensity among the species in the negative-ion FT-ICR mass spectrum for each sample. Dihydroxy compounds with an aromatic core structure of benzene, indan. biphenyl (and/or acenaphthene), and naphthalene were identified in the distillate fractions. Dihydroxy compounds in the residue fraction were dihydroxy fluorenes and phenanthrenes (and/or anthracenes). The O-2 class species with relatively high molecular masses were likely dihydroxy acenaphthylenes and/or hydroxy dibenzofurans but could not be distinguished from each other because these compounds have the same molecular mass.
