Abstract:
A process is disclosed for preparing synthetic lubricant base stocks. Synthetic lubricant base stocks may be prepared in good yield by oligomerizing linear olefins using certain acidic calcium montmorillonite clay catalysts. When the oligomers are hydrogenated, they provide a synthetic lubricant base stock having excellent properties.

Abstract:
In order to prepare a feedstock, isobutane is reacted with oxygen in an oxidation zone to provide an oxidation product comprising a solution of tertiary butyl hydroperoxide in unreacted isobutane. A catalyst may be present to catalyze the reaction of the oxygen with the isobutane if desired.The feedstock is charged to a catalytic decomposition zone wherein the tertiary butyl hydroperoxide is decomposed in the presence of an imidazole-promoted metal phthalocyanine catalyst to provide a decomposition reaction product characterized by a compartively high conversion rate and a compartively high selectively of tertiary butyl hydroperoxide to tertiary butyl alcohol.
Abstract:
Synthetic lubricant base stocks may be prepared in good yield by oligomerizing linear olefin monomers using certain acidic calcium montmorillonite clay catalysts. When the oligomers are prepared at a temperature greater than about 200.degree. C., and any unreacted linear olefin monomer is removed, oligomers having an iodine value less than about 3 mg/g are obtained. An even lower iodine value is obtained when a hydrocarbon possessing a tertiary hydrogen is mixed with the linear olefin feed, and the mixture is contacted with the clay at a temperature greater than about 200.degree. C. Little or no hydrogenation may be required of oligomers prepared in this manner to obtain base stocks suitable for use as synthetic lubricants.
Abstract:
An improved process is disclosed for preparing synthetic lubricant base stocks. Synthetic lubricant base stocks are prepared in good yield by oligomerizing linear olefins using cation-exchangeable layered clays that have been treated with a non-halogenated titanium salt or non-halogenated zirconium salt.
Abstract:
Tertiary butyl alcohol is prepared by the catalytic decomposition of tertiary butyl hydroperoxide, preferably in solution in tertiary butyl alcohol, in the presence of a metal phthalocyanine catalyst promoted with a rhenium compound, such as a phthalocyanine of a metal of Group IB, Group VIIB or Group VIIIB of the Periodic Table (e.g., chloroferric phthalocyanine and rhenium heptoxide-p-dioxane or oxotrichloro-bis-(triphenylphosphine) rhenium V).
Abstract:
A process for the production of detergent range alcohols and ketones by reacting an alkane with a hydroperoxide in the presence of a transition metal acetylacetonate catalyst is described. Preferred hydroperoxides include cumene hydroperoxide and tertiary butyl hydroperoxide. The transition metal itself may be iron, ruthenium, chromium and mixtures thereof. If iron acetylacetonate is used as a catalyst, copper (II) acetate may be usefully employed as a co-catalyst.
Abstract:
Tertiary butyl alcohol is prepared by the catalytic decomposition of tertiary butyl hydroperoxide, preferably in solution in tertiary butyl alcohol, in the presence of a borate-promoted metal phthalocyanine catalyst such as a Group IB, VIIB or VIIIB metal phthalocyanine and a Group IA, IIA or IIB metal borate, for example, chloroferric phthalocyanine and lithium borate, barium borate, zinc borate or sodium metaborate.
Abstract:
A hydroperoxide charge stock (t-butyl hydroperoxide or t-amyl hydroperoxide) is reacted with a C.sub.3 to C.sub.20 olefin charge stock in liquid phase in a reaction zone in the presence of a catalytically effective amount of a soluble molybdenum catalyst to form a product olefin epoxide corresponding to the olefin charge stock and a product alcohol corresponding to the hydroperoxide charge (t-butyl alcohol or t-amyl alcohol), which process is improved in accordance with the present invention by maintaining a reaction medium composed of more than 60 wt % of polar components (hydroperoxide charge stock, product alcohol and product epoxide) in the reaction zone by charging to the reaction zone at least about a 30 wt % solution of the hydroperoxide charge stock in the corresponding product alcohol and charging said olefin charge stock to said reaction zone in an amount relative to the amount of said charged solution of charged hydroperoxide in product alcohol sufficient to provide a ratio of from about 0.5 to about 2 moles of charged olefin per mole of charged hydroperoxide.The preferred olefin charge stock is propylene and the preferred hydroperoxide charge stock is t-butyl hydroperoxide. The corresponding epoxide in this situation is propylene oxide and the corresponding product alcohol is t-butyl alcohol.
