Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Ru-C catalyzes the disproportionation of the cyclohexadienes to cyclohexene and benzene (inert atmosphere, 80°C). In the presence of hydrogen (20°C) the ratioof the 1, 3-cyclohexadiene disproportionation/hydrogenation rates is 4–20 times smaller than on other group VIII metals.

  2. 2.

    On Ru-C the relative adsorbability, and the rate and selectivity of hydrogenation, are lower for 1,4-cyclohexadiene than for 1,3-cyclohexadiene.

  3. 3.

    1, 4-Cyclohexadiene experiences unusually strong adsorption displacement by the reaction product, namely benzene, which deactivates the catalyst.
