Previous papers (1, 2) have reported that substituted benzenes are suitable model compounds for evaluating the hydrogenolysis vs ring hydrogenation activity of a conventional sulfided NiMo/A1203 hydrotreating catalyst. The two reaction paths for the hydroprocessing of substituted benzenes are illustrated in Fig. 1. We have shown, in particular, that ring hydrogenation is favored by strongly electron-donating substituents such as NH2, NHC6Hs, OH, or OC6H5, whereas hydrogenolysis is favored by slightly electron-donating substitutents such as SH, SC6H5, C1, or Br. Moreover, the Hammett-type correlations obtained have confirmed the predominant influence of the aromatic character of organic molecules on the reactivity. The presence of such correlations constituted the first chemical evidence for the existence of two distinct catalytic sites, one responsible for the hydrogenation of the benzene ring, associated with an electron-withdrawing character, and the other responsible for the hydrogenolysis of the C, p2-X bonds, associated with an electron-donating character. The literature data concerning the hydroprocessing of substituted benzenes show that CoMo/AI203 and NiMo/A1203 catalysts behave differently. For example, the hydrodeoxygenation of methyl-substituted phenols proceeds mainly through hydrogenolysis of the CO bond over a sulfided CoMo/AI203 catalyst (3) and the authors concerned have also proposed that different active sites were responsible for the two reaction paths (see Fig. 1), one for CO bond cleavage and another for hydrogenation. Over a sulfided NiMo/AI203 catalyst, we have shown that the hydrodeoxygenation of phenols substituted by alkyl, cyclo-
