Catalytic dehydroisomerization of n-alkanes to isoalkenes
نویسندگان
چکیده
An equilibrated mixture of pentene isomers was produced by dehydroisomerization of n-pentane on catalysts consisting of Pt clusters within [Fe]ZSM-5 channels. These catalysts showed high isomerization rates, excellent stability even without added H2, and isopentene selectivities above 60%. Metal sites on Pt clusters dehydrogenate n-alkanes and n-alkenes formed undergo skeletal rearrangements with high selectivity on weak acid sites prevalent in Na-[Fe]ZSM-5 after reduction of exchanged Pt cations. Zeolite channels inhibit side reactions and sintering processes that cause rapid deactivation on unprotected Pt clusters. © 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

The selectivity of ammonia monooxygenase from Nitrosomonas europaea (AMO-Ne) for the oxidation of C4-C8n-alkanes to the corresponding alcohol isomers was examined to show the ability of AMO-Ne to recognize the n-alkane orientation within the catalytic site. AMO-Ne in whole cells produces 1- and 2-alcohols from C4-C8n-alkanes, and the regioselectivity is dependent on the length of the carbon cha...

Iso-butene is an important material for the production of chemicals and polymers. It can take part in various chemical reactions, such as hydrogenation, oxidation and other additions owing to the presence of a reactive double bond. It is usually obtained as a by-product of a petroleum refinery, by Fluidized Catalytic Cracking (FCC) of naphtha or gas-oil. However, an interesting alternative to i...
