- GAS-TO-LIQUID REACTOR AND METHOD OF USING
-
A device and a process to propagate molecular growth of hydrocarbons, either straight or branched chain structures, that naturally occur in the gas phase to a molecular size sufficient to shift the natural occurring phase to a liquid or solid state is provided. According to one embodiment, the device includes a grounded reactor vessel having a gas inlet, a liquid outlet, and an electrode within the vessel; a power supply coupled to the electrode for creating an elecirostatic field within the vessel for converting the gas to a liquid and or solid state.

- Alkene oligomerization process
-
A process for oligomerising alkenes having from 3 to 6 carbon atoms which comprises contacting a feedstock comprising a) one or several alkenes having x carbon atoms, and, b) optionally, one or several alkenes having y carbon atoms, x and y being different, with a catalyst containing a zeolite of the MFS structure type, under conditions to obtain selectively oligomeric product containing predominant amounts of certain oligomers. The process is carried out at a temperature comprised between 125 and 175° C. when the feedstock contains only alkenes with 3 carbon atoms and between 140 and 240° C., preferably between 140 and 200° C. when the feedstock contains comprises at least one alkene with 4 or more carbon atoms.

- IONIC ALKYLATION OF TERTIARY ALKYL HALIDES WITH TETRAALKYLSILANES
-
In the reaction of tertiary alkyl halides with tetraethyl-, tetrapropyl-, tetrabutyl-, and tetraamylsilane in the presence of AlX3 the halogen atom is substituted by the alkyl group with the formation of the corresponding saturated hydrocarbons containing a quaternary carbon atom.As a result of the hydride mobility of the β-hydrogen atom in the tetraalkylsilane ionic hydrogenolysis of the substrate occurs in addition to alkylation, and the degree of hydrogenolysis depends on the alkyl substituent in the silane.

- Photochemistry of Alkenes. 6. Direct Irradiation of 1,5-Hexadienes: and Sigmatropic Allyl Shifts
-
The photochemical behavior of a series of alkyl-substituted 1,5-hexadienes has been studied.Competing allylcyclopropane formation and rearrangement to an isomeric 1,5-hexadiene via competing and sigmatropic allyl shifts, respectively, were observed.In one case a product (30 from 27) and in another a product (35 from 31) was obtained, but only in low yield.Extensive cis trans isomerization competed with the allyl shifts, and, in addition, other products were obtained which are characteristic of the photochemical behavior of isolated double bonds.At low conversion diene 10t underwent stereoselective rearrangement to 8t and 11t, whereas the cis isomer 10c afforded mixtures of the cis and trans isomers of 8 and 11.Attempts to induce the allyl migrations by sensitization with p-xylene or by irradiation at 254 nm afforded only cis trans isomerization.It is concluded that the allyl migrations occur via an excited state involving interaction between the double bonds and requiring a conformation in which the central C3-C4 bond is in a plane orthogonal to both double bonds, as proposed previously.In contrast with the acyclic dienes, 1,5-cyclooctadiene (50) afforded products 51-53 from competing , , and allyl shifts, respectively.The divergent behavior in this case apparently arises because appropriate interaction between the two double bonds can occur only in the boat conformation.
