摘要:
Anhydrous TaF.sub.5 can be synthesized from a mixture comprising water and fluorotantalic acids by contacting said mixture with a dehydrating agent. Preferably, said mixture is formed by contacting tantalum oxides, tantalum oxide-halides or mixtures thereof with HF. The dehydrating agent should be a compound that contains carbon-chlorine bonds, carbon-bromine bonds or mixtures thereof.
摘要:
The addition of water into a Fischer-Tropsch hydrocarbon synthesis reaction zone employing passing a CO and H.sub.2 feed mixture over a catalyst comprising cobalt, ruthenium and mixtures thereof preferably on a titania support and which may include a promoter metal, that results in 90% CO conversion to hydrocarbons and increased C.sub.5 + hydrocarbon selectivity, along with a decrease in methane production.
摘要:
An acid catalyst comprising a catalytic component selected from the group consisting of oxides of tungsten, niobium and mixtures thereof and tungsten or niobium oxides in combination with one or more additional metal oxides selected from the group consisting of tantalum oxide, hafnium oxide, chromium oxide, titanium oxide and zirconium oxide on an inorganic refractory oxide support is prepared by depositing by means known in the art a metal oxide precursor salt on an inorganic refractory metal oxide which is not itself an acid cracking catalyst or by intimately mixing a metal oxide precursor salt with a refractory metal oxide support precursor salt, converting the salt or salts to the respective metal oxides and subjecting the resultant combination to steaming at elevated temperatures prior to use. Catalysts prepared in this manner exhibit enhanced activity and selectivity as compared to conventional acid catalysts. They also exhibit remarkable resistance to coke make.
摘要:
It has been discovered and forms the basis of the disclosure that various acid catalyzed hydrocarbon conversion processes such as catalytic cracking of gas oil; xylene isomerization; toluene disproportionation; dealkylation of aromatics; ethylene, butylene, isobutylene, propylene polymerization; olefin isomerization; alcohol dehydration; olefin hydration; alkylation; heavy ends cat cracking, etc. are dramatically improved insofar as percent conversion, and selectivity are concerned by the use of a catalyst selected from the group consisting of the oxides of tungsten, niobium and mixtures thereof, and tungsten or niobium oxides in combination with one or more additional metal oxides selected from the group consisting of tantalum oxide, hafnium oxide, chromium oxide, titanium oxide and zirconium oxide, supported on an inorganic refractory oxide support. These catalysts may be prepared by the methods known in the art, i.e., incipient wetness, impregnation, coprecipitation, etc. of the metal oxide precursor onto or with the supports followed by conversion into the oxide form. Before use, the metal oxide/support combination is preferably subjected to steaming at elevated temperatures either before introduction into the reactor or in situ in the process reactor. Conventional catalytic cracking catalysts are unstable at the elevated temperatures where the metal oxide/support combinations of the present invention are uniquely stable.
摘要:
This invention relates to a method of producing a dibenzocycloheptene compound of the structure ##STR1## in high yields which comprises: (a) hydrogenating an anthracene derivative in the 9,10 position to form a 9,10-dihydroanthracene derivative, (b) selectively mono-carbonylating one of the hydrogens in the 9,10 position to form a monoaldehyde, (c) reducing the aldehyde to form the corresponding alcohol and (d) dehydrating and expanding the center ring to form the dibenzocycloheptene compound.
