Bifunctional Catalysts Based on Tungsten Hydrides Supported on Silicated Alumina for the Direct Production of 2,3-Dimethylbutenes and Neohexene from Isobutene

Well-defined bifunctional supported catalysts that comprise tungsten hydride moieties and Br?nsted acid sites were prepared successfully. The catalysts showed outstanding activities and selectivities toward the formation of high-value-added products, 2,3-dimethylbutenes and 3,3-dimethylbutene, through a combination of the metathesis and dimerization of isobutene. The relationship between the physicochemical properties of the catalysts and their activities and selectivities indicated that isobutene conversion increased from 4 to 95 % as a function of the silica content of the silicated alumina (obtained from Sasol). Nevertheless, the selectivity toward branched hexenes showed a volcano-shaped curve that presented a maximum for the catalyst with 5 wt % silica. Therefore, the control of the support acidity by the silica loading on alumina resulted in an increase of the selectivity toward neohexene.

HYDROTHERMAL PRODUCTION OF ALKANES

Synthesizing an alkane includes heating a mixture including an alkene and water at or above the water vapor saturation pressure in the presence of a catalyst and one or both of hydrogen and a reductant, thereby hydrogenating the alkene to yield an alkane and water, and separating the alkane from the water to yield the alkane. The reductant includes a first metal and the catalyst includes a second metal.

A method of producing one or more glycerol ethers, the method comprising contacting glycerol and tertiary butanol (TBA) in the presence of an acidic catalyst to produce one or more glycerol ethers selected from mono-tert butyl glycerol ethers, di-tert butyl glycerol ethers, tri-tert butyl glycerol ethers, or a combination thereof; separating water and a stream comprising isobutylene, unreacted TBA, or a combination thereof from the one or more glycerol ethers; and recycling at least a portion of the stream comprising isobutylene, unreacted TBA, or a combination thereof to the contacting. Also disclosed is a process of co-producing isooctene, wherein the process involves contacting glycerol and tertiary butanol in the presence of a dehydrating catalyst and dimerizing/oligomerizing the dehydrated products in the presence of an oligomerizing catalyst to form isooctene, a precursor of isooctane and isomers thereof.

Identification of the strong Br?nsted acid site in a metal–organic framework solid acid catalyst

It remains difficult to understand the surface of solid acid catalysts at the molecular level, despite their importance for industrial catalytic applications. A sulfated zirconium-based metal–organic framework, MOF-808-SO4, was previously shown to be a strong solid Br?nsted acid material. In this report, we probe the origin of its acidity through an array of spectroscopic, crystallographic and computational characterization techniques. The strongest Br?nsted acid site is shown to consist of a specific arrangement of adsorbed water and sulfate moieties on the zirconium clusters. When a water molecule adsorbs to one zirconium atom, it participates in a hydrogen bond with a sulfate moiety that is chelated to a neighbouring zirconium atom; this motif, in turn, results in the presence of a strongly acidic proton. On dehydration, the material loses its acidity. The hydrated sulfated MOF exhibits a good catalytic performance for the dimerization of isobutene (2-methyl-1-propene), and achieves a 100% selectivity for C8 products with a good conversion efficiency.

Olefin oligomerization via new and efficient Br?nsted acidic ionic liquid catalyst systems

Olefin oligomerization reaction catalyzed by new catalyst systems (a Br?nsted-acidic ionic liquid as the main catalyst and tricaprylylmethylammonium chloride as the co-catalyst) has been investigated. The synthesized Br?nsted acidic ionic liquids were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV), 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and 13C NMR to analyze their structures and acidities. The influence of different ionic liquids, ionic liquid loading, different co-catalysts, catalyst ratios (mole ratio of ionic liquid to co-catalyst), reaction time, pressure, temperature, solvent, source of reactants, and the recycling of catalyst systems was studied. Among the synthesized ionic liquids, 1-(4-sulfonic acid)butyl-3-hexylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([HIMBs]HSO4) exhibited the best catalytic activity under the tested reaction conditions. The conversion of isobutene and selectivity of trimers were 83.21% and 35.80%, respectively, at the optimum reaction conditions. Furthermore, the catalyst system can be easily separated and reused; a feasible reaction mechanism is proposed on the basis of the distribution of experimental products.

Byproducts formation in the ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) synthesis reaction on macroreticular acid ion-exchange resins

Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) production is one of the industrial processes of major importance today in Europe. However, the study of side reactions in this synthesis reaction appears scarcely in the open literature. Side reactions take place along with the etherification of C4 olefinic cuts with ethanol, catalyzed by acidic ion-exchange resins. In this work, byproducts formation is studied in a batch reactor. The presence of diethyl ether (DEE), ethyl sec-butyl ether (ESBE), dimers of isobutene (2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene (TMP-1) and 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene (TMP-2)) and tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) has been studied in terms of production and selectivity. The effect of temperature, ranging from 323 to 383 K, and the influence of initial molar ratio ethanol/isobutene (R A/O), ranging from 0.5 to 2.0, on byproducts formation have been analyzed. All byproducts formation was favored by high temperatures. A low initial molar ratio ethanol/isobutene favored the formation of DEE, ESBE, TMP-1 and TMP-2, whereas high molar ratios favored TBA formation.

Highly efficient trimerization of isobutene over silica supported chloroaluminate ionic liquid using C4 feed

A series of silica, glass and molecular sieves supported chloroaluminate ionic liquids (ILs) were prepared and their catalytic performance on the trimerization of isobutene based on C4 mixture was investigated. Interestingly, it was found that the carrier played a key role in the reaction route. Among these supported catalysts, silica supported chloroaluminate ionic liquid was highly efficient for the trimerization of isobutene. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) characterizations suggested that the synergy between Al2Cl7- anion and silica induced the catalytic activity for isobutene oligomerization due to the strong interaction between ILs and silanol group. The reaction conditions including loading amount, temperature, reactant concentration, and space velocity for the isobutene oligomerization were optimized. Ultimately, complete conversion of isobutene and 91.4% selectivity of trimers were obtained over the IL/silica (30 wt.%) catalyst at mild conditions. Moreover, catalyst stability and deactivation were preliminarily studied.
