This paper investigated the reduction of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in coal tar pitch by modifying with 1,4-Benzenedimethanol, Divinylbenzene and Trioxymethylene. Coal tar pitch was modified by these Cross linking monomers respectively. The content of BaP in product was determined. The results indicated that 48.28% BaP was reduced in modified pitch with 12% divinylbenzene at 130°C for 3 hours; 66.38% BaP was reduced in modified pitch with 25%1, 4-Benzenedimethanol at 120°C for 1 hour; Furthermore, 92.24% BaP was reduced in modified pitch with 25% trioxymethylene at 110°C for 0.5~1h. Pure BaP was blended with trioxymethylene. The C13 N.M.R.spectras of raw material and product were determined, the mechanism probably including C-alkylation.
