Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 19
Claim 1
Independent Claim 56 words
A method of preparing a catalyst composition which comprises contacting a porous crystalline siliceous zeolite having a silica-to-alumina mole ratio greater than about 20 with a solution of a transition metal complex of uncommon low charge for a period of time sufficient to exchange a portion of said metal complex with a component of said zeolite.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 56 words
A method of preparing a catalyst composition which comprises contacting a porous crystalline siliceous zeolite having a silica-to-alumina mole ratio greater than about 20 with a solution of a transition metal complex of uncommon low charge for a period of time sufficient to exchange a portion of said metal complex with a component of said zeolite.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 42 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said metal complex is a complex having a charge of 0 to 1 and said metal is selected from the group consisting of vanadium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, palladium, platinum, uranium, ruthenium and osmium.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 41 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said metal complex is a complex having a charge of 0 to 2 and said metal is selected from the group consisting of rhodium, iridium, titanium, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, tantalum, tungsten, rhenium and the lanthanides.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said metal complex contains a ligand selected from the group consisting of carbon monoxide, benzene, phosphine and ammonia.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said period of time is sufficient to exchange at least 0.05 percent by weight of metal with a constituent of said zeolite.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is an aqueous solution.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is an organic solvent solution.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said zeolite is selected from the group consisting of Beta, ZSM-4, ZSM-5, ZSM-11, ZSM-12, ZSM-23, ZSM-35, ZSM-38, ZSM-48, mordenite and synthetic faujasite.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 23 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is an aqueous solution containing a Co(NH 3 ) 4 (CO 3 ) + ion.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 17 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is an aqueous solution containing a divalent chromium ion.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is a non-aqueous solution of ferrocene.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 15 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is a non-aqueous solution of ferrocinium ion.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is a non-aqueous solution of bis (benzene) chromium.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 32 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said solution is a non-aqueous solution of the singly oxidized derivative of a metal complex selected from the group consisting of ferrocene, and bis (benzene) chromium.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim 18 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said zeolite has a silica to alumina ratio greater than about 1600.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said zeolite contains no measurable amount of aluminum.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim 16 words
The process of claim 1 wherein after said step of contacting the resultant product is calcined.
Claim 19
Dependent Claim 26 words
The product prepared by the process of claim 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, or 17.
