A supported catalyst of WO3/few layer g-C3N4 composite was synthesized by a facile in situ calcination technique. Functional ionic liquid [(C16H33)(2)N(CH3)(2)](2)W2O11 was prepared and used as the precursor of WO3 nanoparticles. Large surface specific area (203.01 m(2) g(-1)) few layer g-C3N4 was obtained through multiple thermal condensations, and it is a desirable support for WO3 nanoparticles. The composition and morphology of the supported catalysts were systematically characterized by FT-IR, XRD, XPS, N-2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, SEM and TEM. It was found that WO3 nanoparticles highly dispersed on the surface of few layer g-C3N4. Then, the catalytic oxidative desulfurization performance of the supported catalyst was investigated in detail. Various refractory aromatic sulfur containing compounds including DBT, 4-MDBT, 4,6-DMDBT and 3-MBT were completely removed under the following conditions: m(catalyst)= 0.05 g, T= 50 degrees C, O/S= 3, V(model oil)= 5 mL. The oxidation product of DBT was detected by GC-MS analysis and the probable mechanism was discussed. Moreover, WO3/few layer g-C3N4 catalyst remained highly active for six consecutive cycles with no loss in activity (100% DBT conversion), indicating that the supported catalyst WO3/few layer g-C3N4 has high stability and excellent desulfurization activity.
