In an attempt to study the behavior and chemistry of coal in ionic liquids, 1,2-diphenylethane was chosen as a molecule to model its chemical reactions. Newman et al. [86] investigated of the behavior of 1,2-diphenylethane in acidic pyri-dinium chloroaluminate(iii) melts ([PyH]Cl-AlCl3). At 40 °C, 1,2-diphenylethane
