Abstract

Abstract Isobutylene and a second C3 -C20 monoolefin can be reacted (dismutation) over an alumina supported catalyst of the oxide of molybdenum, tungsten or rhenium modified with fluoride ion in the form of a soluble salt in a weight ratio of fluoride ion to metal oxide in the range of 0.065:1 to 0.20:1 to produce different olefinic product than the starting olefins. For example, isobutylene is reacted with 2-butene over a MoO3, NaF (F :MoO3 ratio 0.175:1) at 150* C. to give 30 percent conversion of isobutylene aNd 15 percent selectivity to 2-methyl-2-butene which is the immediate precursor of isoprene (widely used in the preparation of synthetic rubber).
