This report briefly descibes a method for cleaving organosulfur compounds from coal, kerogens and asphaltenes. The technique utilized nickel chloride and sodium borohydride. Experiments were performed on Illinois No. 6 coal. The method was also used in a deuterium labelling technique for investigating sulfur bonds
