Comparison of the IR and NMR results indicates that the aliphatic side chains in the selected coal samples are shorter than those in other Siberian coal samples. Comparison of NMR and EPR data shows that, compared to Berezovsky lignite, Kaichaksky-1 lignite has a higher content of oxygen-bearing groups. Its paramagnetism is due to the presence of aroxyl radicals of semiquinone and phenoxyl type. EPR spectroscopy indicates that Kaichaksky-1 lignite has the highest content of paramagnetic complexes based on Fe<sup>3+</sup>.
