Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 58 words
A PROCESS FOR THE DEHYDROGENATION OF MONOOLEFINS TO DIOLEFINS WHICH CONSISTS ESSENTIALLY OF BRINGING SAID MONOOLEFINS INTO CONTACT WITH A CATALYST CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF AT LEAST ONE SALT SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF SILVER CHLORIDE, SILVER IODIDE, SILVER FLUORIDE, SILVER BROMIDE, CADMIUM CHLORIDE, CADMIUM IODIDE, CADMIUM FLUORIDE, CADMIUM BROMIDE AND COPPER FERRICYANIDE DEPOSITED ON AN ALUMINA SUPPORT.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 58 words
A PROCESS FOR THE DEHYDROGENATION OF MONOOLEFINS TO DIOLEFINS WHICH CONSISTS ESSENTIALLY OF BRINGING SAID MONOOLEFINS INTO CONTACT WITH A CATALYST CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF AT LEAST ONE SALT SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF SILVER CHLORIDE, SILVER IODIDE, SILVER FLUORIDE, SILVER BROMIDE, CADMIUM CHLORIDE, CADMIUM IODIDE, CADMIUM FLUORIDE, CADMIUM BROMIDE AND COPPER FERRICYANIDE DEPOSITED ON AN ALUMINA SUPPORT.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
A process according to claim 1 in which a temperature of from about 375*C. to 725*C. is employed.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the monoolefins are either straight or branched chain and contain from 4 to 8 carbon atoms.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the monoolefins are selected from the group consisting of cis-2-butene, cis-2-pentene, 3-methyl-2-pentene, 1-butene, 1-pentene, 2-methyl-2-butene, 2,3-dimethyl-1-butene, 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, 2-ethyl-1-butene, and 2-methyl-1-butene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
A process according to claim 4 in which the catalyst contains from about ten percent to about 40 percent by weight of the salt or mixtures thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 21 words
A process according to claim 5 in which the liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) ranges from about 0.5 to about 2.0.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the catalyst contains from about one percent to about 40 percent by weight of the salt or mixtures thereof.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 18 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) ranges from 0.1 to about 10.0.
