Role of ethylene in formation of benzene by pyrolysis of n-hexane

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    We investigated the thermal transformations of n-hexane, ethylene and a mixture of n-hexane-ethylene-14C at 800°C and partial pressures of the starting hydrocarbons not more than 55 torr. We established that the conversion of ethylene in the presence of n-hexane is substantially increased.

  2. 2.

    The data obtained make it possible to assume that in the pyrolysis of n-hexane the ethylene being formed is involved in the formation of aromatic hydrocarbons, by interacting with radicals or with molecules capable of reacting, in particular with 1,3-butadiene.
