Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 97 words
A process for the disproportionation of olefins comprising contacting at least two non-conjugated olefinic reactants under suitable reaction conditions with a catalytic amount of a catalyst composition produced by admixing an inorganic refractory oxide containing a catalytic amount of at least one metal oxide selected from molybdenum oxide or tungsten oxide with a promoting amount of a dithionite salt of the formula Me x S 2 O 4 wherein Me is a metal selected from Groups IA and IIB of the Periodic Table of the Elements and x is an integer sufficient to satisfy the valence requirements.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 97 words
A process for the disproportionation of olefins comprising contacting at least two non-conjugated olefinic reactants under suitable reaction conditions with a catalytic amount of a catalyst composition produced by admixing an inorganic refractory oxide containing a catalytic amount of at least one metal oxide selected from molybdenum oxide or tungsten oxide with a promoting amount of a dithionite salt of the formula Me x S 2 O 4 wherein Me is a metal selected from Groups IA and IIB of the Periodic Table of the Elements and x is an integer sufficient to satisfy the valence requirements.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said inorganic refractory oxide is selected from the group of silica, alumina, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 45 words
A process according to claim 2 wherein said catalytic amount of said metal oxide is in the range of about 1 to about 20 percent of the combined weights of said metal oxide and said refractory oxide prior to the addition of the dithionite salt.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
A process according to claim 3 wherein the disproportionation is carried out at a temperature in the range of about 20° C. to about 600° C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 43 words
A process according to claim 4 wherein the dithionite salt is employed in an amount in the range of about 0.1 to about 20 weight percent based on the weight of the metal oxide-refractory oxide combination prior to the addition of the dithionite.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 21 words
A process according to claim 5 wherein said metal oxide is WO 3 and said refractory oxide is SiO 2 .
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 12 words
A process according to claim 6 wherein said dithionite is sodium dithionite.
