Abstract

Abstract Olefinic hydrocarbons containing from 3 to about 6 carbon atoms in which the olefinic linkage is in a terminal position are oligomerized by treatment with a heterogeneous oligomerization catalyst which is prepared by treating an activated metal oxide of Group IIIA of the Periodic Table with a titanium tetrafluoride compound at an elevated temperature.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 77 words
A catalyst preparation method which comprises heating a metal oxide which possesses surface hydroxyl groups with hydrogen or nitrogen at a temperature of from about 350° to about 550° C., impregnating the thus heated metal oxide with a solution of titanium tetrafluoride, cold rolling the impregnated oxide for a time period of from about 0.5 to about 4 hours, then steam drying at about 100° C. and further drying at about 200°-600° C. in an inert atmosphere.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 77 words
A catalyst preparation method which comprises heating a metal oxide which possesses surface hydroxyl groups with hydrogen or nitrogen at a temperature of from about 350° to about 550° C., impregnating the thus heated metal oxide with a solution of titanium tetrafluoride, cold rolling the impregnated oxide for a time period of from about 0.5 to about 4 hours, then steam drying at about 100° C. and further drying at about 200°-600° C. in an inert atmosphere.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method as set forth in claim 1 in which said metal oxide comprises a Group IIIA metal oxide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
The method as set forth in claim 2 in which said Group IIIA metal oxide is a high surface area alumina.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method as set forth in claim 3 in which said alumina is a low density, high surface area gamma-alumina.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method as set forth in claim 2 in which said Group IIIA metal oxide is gallium oxide.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method as set forth in claim 2 in which said Group IIIA meta oxide is indium oxide.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 25 words
The method as set forth in claim 1 further characterized in that said titanium tetrafluoride-metal oxide is composited on a high surface area inert support.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method as set forth in claim 7 in which said high surface area inert support is silica.
