Abstract

Abstract New nickel composition having substantial solubility in hydrocarbons and prepared by reacting at least one inorganic divalent compound, at least one halogenoacetic acid and at least one ester of the formula R 1 COO R 2 wherein R 1 is hydrogen or hydrocarbyl and R 2 is hydrocarbyl. The resultant composition can be used in admixture with a hydrocarbylaluminum halide as catalyst for olefin dimerization.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 51 words
A nickel liquid reaction product composition, soluble in hydrocarbons, obtained by the process comprising reacting: a divalent nickel inorganic compound; a halogenoacetic acid; and an ester of the general formula R 1 COOR 2 , wherein R 1 is hydrogen or C 1-4 -alkyl and R 2 is a hydrocarbyl radical.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 51 words
A nickel liquid reaction product composition, soluble in hydrocarbons, obtained by the process comprising reacting: a divalent nickel inorganic compound; a halogenoacetic acid; and an ester of the general formula R 1 COOR 2 , wherein R 1 is hydrogen or C 1-4 -alkyl and R 2 is a hydrocarbyl radical.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 42 words
A composition according to claim 1, whose manufacture comprises the use of halogenoacetic acid in a proportion of 0.1-2 moles per nickel atom of the inorganic compound and ester in a proportion of 0.1-10 liters per nickel atom of the inorganic compound.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
A composition according to claim 1, whose manufacture comprises the use of halogenoacetic acid in a proportion of 0.5-1.5 mole and ester is a proportion of 0.2-2 liters per nickel atom of the inorganic compound.
