Abstract
Abstract A novel siliceous composition prepared by impregnating porous silica with aluminum hydride and subsequently heating the impregnated silica to a temperature of from about 300 DEG C. to about 900 DEG C. in a non-oxidizing environment. The composition is useful as a catalyst in reactions catalyzed by acid catalysts.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
55 words
A process for preparing a siliceous composition which comprises impregnating a substantially dehydrated amorphorous silica gel with aluminum hydride dissolved in an anhydrous, non-hydroxyl containing organic solvent, drying the impregnated silica to remove the solvent and subsequently heating the impregnated silica at a temperature of about 300° to about 900° C. in a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
55 words
A process for preparing a siliceous composition which comprises impregnating a substantially dehydrated amorphorous silica gel with aluminum hydride dissolved in an anhydrous, non-hydroxyl containing organic solvent, drying the impregnated silica to remove the solvent and subsequently heating the impregnated silica at a temperature of about 300° to about 900° C. in a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the impregnated silica is subsequently heated to a temperature of about 450° C. to about 750° C.
