High-temperature transformations of ethylcyclohexane in presence of palladium- alumina and hydrogen at high pressure in a flow system

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

Summary

  1. 1.

    An investigation was made of the catalytic transformations of ethylcyclohexane in presence of palladized alumina at 460° in presence of hydrogen at 35, 50 and 65 atm in a flow system.

  2. 2.

    It was shown that, under these conditions, ethyl cyclohexane undergoes profound transformations in various directions: dehydrogenation, hydrogenolysis of the side chain, and isomerization with contraction of the ring and subsequent opening of the five-membered ring.

  3. 3.

    It was shown that increase in pressure from 35 to 65 atm causes the conversion of ethylcyclohexane to rise from 61.4% to 84.8%.

  4. 4.

    It was shown that preliminary treatment of the catalyst with hydrofluoric acid results in reduced dehydrogenating activity and increased isomerizing power.
