Abstract:
The invention discloses a method for converting alkane to oxygenate which comprises the following steps: (i) contacting an alkane-containing gas with non-metal, regenerable, electrophile ions in a concentrated sulfuric acid medium under conditions sufficient to provide electrophilicly activated alkane and reduced electrophile ions; (ii) contacting said electrophilicly activated alkane with sulfate to form a sulfate ester; (iii) exposing the sulfate ester to hydrolyzing conditions sufficient to convert it to oxygenate; and (iv) collecting the oxygenate.

Abstract:
A process for hydrocracking heavy hydrocarbon feeds using a catalyst composition containing a hydrogenation/dehydrogenation component, such as a noble metal, and an acidic solid component including a Group IVB metal oxide modified with an oxyanion of a Group VIB metal. The hydrocracking product has high isoparaffin to normal paraffin ratios and with minimal ethane and methane byproducts at high conversions. The hydrocracking step is useful in processes for producing high quality lubricating oil basestocks, along with naphtha and distillate products.

Abstract:
A method of preparing a modified catalytic molecular sieve for enhanced shape selective hydrocarbon conversions in which a catalytic molecular sieve is modified by being exposed to at least one ex situ selectivation sequence, each sequence including an impregnation of the molecular sieve with a selectivating agent in an aqueous emulsion and a subsequent calcination of the impregnated molecular sieve. The selectivating agent compositions for the ex situ selectivation method are also described, including the selectivating agents, the surfactants, and the aqueous components. Also, a method for moderate steaming of the ex situ selectivated molecular sieve. Also a method for in situ trim-selectivating the ex situ selectivated catalytic molecular sieve. Also described is the modified catalytic molecular sieve modified by this method. Also described is a process for shape selective hydrocarbon conversion comprising contacting a hydrocarbon feedstream under conversion conditions with the modified catalytic molecular sieve.
Abstract:
There is provided a catalyst comprising a hydrogenation/dehydrogenation component, such as a noble metal, and an acidic solid component comprising a Group IVB metal oxide modified with an oxyanion of a Group VIB metal. An example of this catalyst is zirconia, modified with tungstate and platinum. There is also provided a method for preparing this catalyst. This catalyst may be used, for example, to isomerize C.sub.4 to C.sub.8 paraffins. The feed to this paraffin isomerization reaction may, optionally, include cyclic hydrocarbons, such as benzene or cyclohexane, which may undergo ring opening reactions during the course of the isomerization reaction.
