Oligomerization of Unsaturated Compounds in the Presence of Amorphous Mesoporous Aluminosilicates

Resumo

High activity and selectivity of the samples of ASM amorphous mesoporous aluminosilicates in the synthesis of practically important oligomers of various unsaturated compounds (C₅–C₁₆ linear α-olefins, cyclooctene, norbornene, and α-methylstyrene) is found. The oligomerization products obtained in the presence of ASM have a broader molecular weight distribution in comparison with the oligomers synthesized over the H-Beta zeolite. The mesoporous structure of the ASM aluminosilicate provides the preparation of dimers of cyclooctene with high selectivity without cycle opening.
