Application
Dibenzothiophene serves as a crucial component in the study of the effects of sulfur compounds during fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) in the gasoline range, offering insight into its transformative role in this essential industrial process. This yellow-green crystalline solid, characterized by its stability under standard conditions and solubility in various organic solvents, acts as a valuable starting material for synthesizing sulfoxides and sulfones through oxidative desulfurization. Furthermore, it is utilized as a template for creating surface molecular imprinted polymers (SMIP), aiding the removal of sulfur during desulfurization. Additionally, dibenzothiophene is integral to developing π-conjugating polymers and plays a significant role in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals as a chemical intermediate. Its application extends into the realm of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), notably in biodesulfurization processes using Bacillus subtilis and as a precursor in synthesizing alkylated derivatives through innovative lithiation strategies.
