Vapor-Phase hydrogenation of methyl linoleate in the presence of a supported copper catalyst

  • Published:
Journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society

Abstract

Methyl linoleate was hydrogenated in the vapor phase in the presence of a copper-on-alpha alumina catalyst. The kinetics of the reaction could be formulated with a Eley-Rideal mechanism including the reaction between chemisorbed methyl ester and hydrogen in the gas phase. The absorption coefficients in the rate equation were based on separately performed adsorption studies recently reported.
