Butene-1 production through a selective ethylene dimerization is one of the largest industrial processes, which is catalyzed by homogeneous catalyst system. The common industrial catalyst system is comprised of Ti alkoxide-based catalysts in combination with AlEt3 as an activator. In this study, the alkylsilanes were used as novel improving agents in the catalyst system for highly selective ethylene dimerization to butene-1. The nature and concentration of alkylsilanes on the dimerization rate, catalyst yield, by-product production, and selectivity to butene-1 were investigated in detail. It was found that alkylsilanes improved the productivity and selectivity of the catalyst. Moreover, the content of the solid by-product considerably decreased. The performance of the modified catalyst system was noticeably higher than that of the nonmodified one. Totally, it was proved that alkylsilanes could play a modifying role in the selective ethylene catalytic dimerization process. 相似文献
The concept of supported ionic liquid phase (SILP) catalysis has been extended to 1‐butene hydroformylation. A rhodium‐sulfoxantphos complex was dissolved in [BMIM][n‐C8H17OSO3] and this solution was highly dispersed on silica. Continuous gas‐phase experiments in a fixed‐bed reactor revealed these SILP catalysts to be highly active, selective and long‐term stable. Kinetic data have been acquired by variation of temperature, pressure, syngas composition, substrate and catalyst concentration. A linear dependency in rhodium concentration could be established over a large concentration range giving another excellent hint for truly homogeneous catalysis in the SILP system. Compared to former studies using propene, the SILP system showed significantly higher activity and selectivity with 1‐butene as feedstock. These findings could be elucidated by solubility measurements using a magnetic microbalance. 相似文献
In this paper, we describe a novel method for selectively attaching TiO2 promoters on Pd surfaces in Pd/SiO2 catalysts using selective chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Ti was selectively deposited on Pd active sites over a SiO2 support under a hydrogen atmosphere when titanium tetraisopropoxide was used as a Ti precursor. The Pd–Ti/SiO2 catalyst modified by CVD exhibits approximately 1.8 times higher ethylene selectivity than the un-modified Pd/SiO2 catalyst in the selective hydrogenation of acetylene due to the effective geometric modification of the Pd surface, which is beneficial to ethylene selectivity, by the selectively deposited Ti species. 相似文献
An eight-step mechanism of esterification reaction between adipic acid (AA) and ethylene glycol (EG) catalyzed by tetrabutyl titanate [Ti(OBu)4] was studied in detail. The kinetic data for the esterification reaction between AA and EG catalyzed by tetrabutyl titanate [Ti(OBu)4] were measured in the temperature range of 403 K-433 K. A second-order kinetic model was established, and the model parameters were obtained through an optimization procedure by minimizing the value differences between the simulated component concentrations in the reaction system with the experimental ones. The results demonstrate that the model is suitable for the esterification reaction between AA and EG catalyzed by tetrabutyl titanate [Ti(OBu)4]. Furthermore, the esterification reaction rate increases with the increase of reaction temperature, concentration of catalyst and the initial reactant ratio of EG to AA. 相似文献
Epoxidation of ethylene, propylene, 2‐methylpropene, trans‐2‐butene, 2‐methyl‐2‐butene, and 2,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butene were carried out in a flow‐through reactor in the homogeneous gas phase at pressures of 0.25–1.0 bar in the temperature range of 250–375 °C. Residence times in the reactor varied from 8.3 to 38 ms. The oxidizing agent needed in the feed gas is ozone. The O3 efficiency (reacted olefin/initial O3) was found to be strongly dependent on the reactivity of the olefin used. For C4–C6 olefins, the O3 efficiency was better than 75 % in each case. For 2‐methyl‐2‐butene and 2,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butene, the O3 efficiency exceeded the theoretical value of 100 % considerably. The selectivity to epoxide was about 90 % independent of the olefin used. Under conditions of nearly total olefin conversion, the high selectivity to the epoxide has been retained as unchanged. There were no indications for consecutive reactions of the epoxides. 相似文献
A hybrid approach between the Taguchi method and grey relational analysis (GRA) with entropy measurement was applied to determine a single optimum setting for reaction factors of the proposed ethylene dimerization catalyst having overall selectivity to 1-butene (S1-btn (%)) and turnover frequency (TOF (h-1)) as multiple quality characteristics. Titanium tetrabutoxide (Ti(OC4H9)4) catalyst precursor in combination with triethyl aluminum (TEA) activator, 1,4-dioxane as a suitable modifier, and ethylene dichloride (EDC) as a novel promoter were used in the catalysis. Control factors of temperature, pressure, Al/Ti, 1,4-dioxane/Ti, and EDC/Ti mol ratios were investigated on three levels and their main effects were discussed. The effect of the binary interaction between temperature, pressure, and Al/Ti mol ratio was also examined. Weight of the responses was determined using entropy. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) for data obtained from GRA indicated that EDC/Ti mol ratio with 27.64% contribution had the most profound effect on the multiple quality characteristics. Development of the weighted Grey-Taguchi method used the Taguchi method as its basic structure, adopted GRA to deal with multiple responses, and entropy to enhance the reasonability of the comprehensive index produced by GRA to make the results more objective and accurate. Overall, these combined mathematical techniques improved catalytic performance for 1-butene production. 相似文献
A zirconium‐based Ziegler–Natta catalytic system has been tested in the dimerization of 1‐butene. It was found that the concentration
of Et2AlCl, Ph3P and PhONa as well as the reaction temperature had great influences on the activity and selectivity of the catalyst. Under
the optimum reaction conditions, the conversion of 1‐butene is 91.9%, and the selectivity of dimers is 76.7%. Basic ligands
such as Ph3P and PhONa can inhibit isomerization of 1‐butene to 2‐butene effectively. In addition, the metal hydride mechanism was also
suggested and some indirect evidence was obtained in favor of this mechanism.

Summary: The effect of metal catalysts in promoting the formation of the comb copolymer between a very low density polyethylene (VLDPE) grafted with diethyl maleate and PET has been studied in this paper following a model study based on low molecular weight molecules resembling the local structure of the reactive groups in the reference macromolecules. Ti(OBu)4 was used as the catalyst and the reactions were carried out under the same conditions as in the case of the macromolecules species. The model mixtures have been analyzed by FT‐IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and GC‐MS and evidence of the degradation of ester bonds, deactivation of hydroxyl terminals of PET and the possible crosslinking of functionalized polyolefin have been observed. The molecular model process agrees with results obtained for the macromolecular system blending PET and VLDPE grafted with diethyl maleate in a Brabender mixer in the presence of Ti(OBu)4, as evaluated by mixer torque values and selective extraction results. Therefore, the present model study allows us to both obtain information about reaction mechanism in the complex melt biphasic system and to suggest new strategies to optimize the process.

Novel titania supports have been designed and elaborated with the hydrolysis precipitation method, by adjusting and controlling of the main preparation parameters, such as pH value, adding rate of tetrabutyl titanate Ti(OBu)4, and calcining temperature of precursor during support preparation. The new titania supported Pd catalysts were prepared and investigated for selective hydrogenation of acetylene to ethylene. The catalyst samples have been characterized by temperature programmed reduction (TPR), XRD and BET techniques. The experimental results indicated that with MgO modification, the improved catalyst (0.5%Pd–MgO/TiO2) showed better performance of high and stable activity. 相似文献
