摘要:
Tert.-olefins are obtained in high purity by cleavage of their alkyl ethers, when the catalysts used for this purpose are styrene/divinylbenzene resins which contain sulphonic acid groups and have a macroporous structure and the polymer matrix of which has an internal surface area of at least 400 m.sup.2 /g, a pore volume (porosity) of 0.6-2.5 ml/g and a mean pore diameter of 40-1000 .ANG.. These catalysts show long service lives.
摘要:
Pure tert.-olefins are prepared from mixtures of hydrocarbons, which contain at least one such tert.-olefin, by reaction with an alkanol to give the corresponding alkyl tert.-alkyl ethers, and subsequent cleavage of these ethers back to the corresponding pure tert.-olefins and the alkanol, and the separation of the pure tert.-olefin from the alkanol. For this, the alkanol present after the cleavage of the ether is separated from the tert.-olefin to the extent of 60 to 99% by weight by distillation, and the residual amount of alcohol in the olefin fraction is removed by adsorption from this fraction onto a synthetic ion exchanger as an absorber resin. The admixture of the alkanol to the mixture of hydrocarbons with at least one tert.-olefin is carried out partly by using the alkanol fraction arising from the separating off of the pure tert.-olefin, and partly by desorption of the alkanol from the absorber resin with the aid of the mixture of hydrocarbons containing at least 1 tert.-olefin.
摘要:
Alkyl tert.-alkyl ethers can be cleaved into the underlying alkanols and tert.-olefins in the presence of strongly acidic substances in a column apparatus, the strongly acidic substance being made available at the foot of the column. A particularly advantageous process design results when a water stream is fed below the top column tray in countercurrent to the tert.-olefin flowing upwards and is taken off again from the column above the bottom circulation; in the case of using an insoluble, strongly acidic substance, the latter is located in a catalyst bed at the foot of the column, and the alkyl tert.-alkyl ether is preferably fed in between the catalyst bed and the bottom circulation evaporator.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of pure alkyl tertiary alkyl ethers and hydrocarbon raffinates which are substantially free from tertiary olefins and alkanols. An alkanol and a hydrocarbon mixture containing at least one tertiary olefin are contacted with the alkanol being present in a stoichiometric excess. The reaction product is removed from the reaction zone and excess alkanol in the reaction product or a partial stream thereof is absorbed on a synthetic ion exchanger containing groups which exchange cations or anions or mixtures of such ion exchangers. After absorption of at least a portion of the alkanol on the synthetic ion exchanger, the alkanol is desorbed by contacting the same with a hydrocarbon mixture containing at least one tertiary olefin.
摘要:
Alkenes having a terminal double bond can be isomerized to give alkenes having an internal double bond if alkenes having a terminal double bond or hydrocarbon feedstock having a content of alkenes of this type having a terminal double bond are subjected to treatment, in the presence of hydrogen, over a macroporous or gel-like cation exchanger in the H.sup.+ form which contains 0.001 to 10 g of one or more metals of the VIth and/or VIIth and/or VIIIth sub-group of the periodic system of the elements in elementary form per liter of dry cation exchanger and which has a degree of crosslinking of 2 to 65% and a specific surface area of 5 to 750 m.sup.2 /g of dry exchange resin. The treatment is carried out in the liquid phase at a temperature from 0.degree. to 120.degree. C.
摘要:
Tert.-Amyl alcohol (TAA) can be prepared in an advantageous manner by hydrating of i-amylenes on an acid cation exchanger by carrying out the reaction in the vicinity of the boiling point of the i-amylenes under the appropriate reaction pressure. A higher content of TAA is thereby obtained in the reaction mixture.
摘要:
Tertiary olefins are obtained in pure form by cleavage of the pertinent tert.alkyl ethers with simultaneous formation of the pertinent alcohols on strongly acidic cation exchangers in the H.sup.+ form. This cleavage is carried out at elevated temperature and atmospheric to superatmospheric pressure. The process is carried out in such a fashion that the ether to be cleaved is employed as a mixture with water. The water may be employed in an amount from 2-50% by weight, relative to the amount of the ether to be cleaved. Suitable ethers to be cleaved are those based on tertiary C.sub.4 -C.sub.7 -olefins and primary C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkanols.
