Abstract:
A catalyst suitable for partially hydrogenating aromatic olefins to cyclohexene is disclosed. The catalyst is composed on a metallic active component deposited on a bi-oxide of gallium oxide-zinc oxide, and the metallic active component is selected from group VIII of the period table. The characteristic of the catalyst comprises a higher selectivity and yield in preparing cyclohexene.
Abstract:
The invention discloses a method of making 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene from any DMN with one methyl on each ring in a two-step hydroisomerization/dehydrogenation process. The catalyst used in the hydroisomerization step is an acidic catalyst such as a silica aluminum catalyst with a hydrogenation/dehydrogenation metal. The catalyst used in the dehydrogenation step is a reforming type catalyst.
Abstract:
The method of the invention includes making dimethyinaphthalenes by first contacting, in an alkylation zone, at alkylation conditions, a toluene-containing stream with a pentene-containing stream in the presence of an acid alkylation catalyst. At least a portion of the toluene and pentenes react to form pentyltoluenes. At least a portion of the pentyltoluenes is then contacting in a reforming zone with reforming catalyst, at reforming conditions. At least a portion of the pentyltoluenes is converted to dimethylnaphthalenes.

Fe, Co and Ni provided on a high surface area mesoporous support and a process for the preparation thereof.
Abstract:
A catalytically active gel product is described consisting of a silica matrix which is amorphous to x-rays with uniform porosity, monomodal pore distribution and high surface area, within which one or more metal oxides possessing catalytic activity are dispersed.
