Abstract
Abstract A process is described whereby a linear hydrocarbon diolefin is selectively hydrogenated to a linear hydrocarbon olefin in the presence of a palladium base catalyst by adding to the reaction mixture an aqueous solution of a zinc salt such as zinc acetate wherein the ratio of water/zinc is at least 1/1 by weight.
