The process has utility for the hydroformylation of streams that contain olefins and alkynes.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for selectively producing alkyl halides from alkanes, such as methane and ethane at relatively mild temperatures and pressures in an organic liquid phase in the presence of halogen and transition metal complex. The alkane may be neat if in a liquid form, or may be solubilized with a suitable organic solvent, if the alkane not a liquid at reaction conditions. The reaction is for a time, under conditions of temperature and pressure and in effective amounts that will permit the formation of alkyl halides. Optional hydrolysis to the corresponding alcohols may follow. The alkyl halides have utility as precursors for alternative fuels, such as methanol.

Processes for polymerizing propylene. About 40 wt % to about 80 wt % propylene monomer, based on total weight of propylene monomer and diluent, and about 20 wt % to about 60 wt % diluent, based on total weight of propylene monomer and diluent, can be fed into a reactor. The propylene monomer can be polymerized in the presence of a metallocene catalyst and an activator within the reactor at a temperature of about 80° C. or more and a pressure of about 13 MPa or more to produce a polymer product in a homogenous system. About 20 wt % to about 76 wt % (preferably About 28 wt % to about 76 wt %) propylene monomer, based on total weight of the propylene monomer, diluent, and polymer product, can be present at the reactor exit at steady state conditions.

Linear alpha olefins having from four to twenty carbon atoms and low amounts of oxygenates are synthesized, by producing a synthesis gas containing H2 and CO from natural gas and passing it over a non-shifting cobalt catalyst at reaction conditions of temperature, % CO conversion, and gas feed H2:CO mole ratio land water vapor pressure, effective for the mathematical expression 200−0.6T+0.03PH2O−0.6XCO−8(H2:CO) to have a numerical value greater than or equal to 50. This process can be integrated into a conventional Fischer-Tropsch hydrocarbon synthesis process producing fuels and lubricant oils.
