Conceptual Background for the Conversion of Hydrocarbons on Heterogeneous Acid Catalysts

  • Chapter
Theoretical Aspects of Heterogeneous Catalysis

Part of the book series: Van Nostrand Reinhold Catalysis Series ((NRECSES))

Abstract

It is generally assumed that carbocations are reaction intermediates in the conversion of hydrocarbons over heterogeneous acid catalysts.1 Direct evidence for the presence of carbocations on the surface of a working catalyst has, however, never been provided. The arguments in favor of the occurrence of cationic intermediates have been that the reaction pathways of hydrocarbons can be predicted by considering the stability of the carbocations that may be formed and the rearrangement pathways these cations might follow.1,2
