Abstract

Novel vanadium oxodiperoxocomplexes [C19H42N]+[VO(O2)2L2]−·2H2O and [C38H84N]2+ [VO(O2)L2]2−·2H2O were synthesized, where L = pyridine (1), 2-methylpyridine (2) and 4-methylpyridine (3), using CTAB and 16-2-16 as cationic gemini surfactant. All complexes were characterized by 1H-NMR, IR spectroscopy, XRD, DSC-TGA analyses and TEM. The diesel fuel desulfurization catalyzed by vanadium peroxocomplexes in bi-phase system was investigated in various solvents. The complexes manifested high catalytic activity and selectivity in removal of sulfur compounds.
