A process for preparing an aromatic isocyanate by direct carbonylation of a nitro aromatic compound by reacting the nitro aromatic compound with carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalyst, characterized in that the catalyst contains a multi metallic material comprising one or more binary intermetallic phases of the general formula ABwherein:

Heterogeneous catalysts for the direct carbonylation of nitro aromatic compounds to isocyanates

The present invention relates to a process for the dimerization of alkenes comprising (1) providing a gas stream comprising one or more alkenes; and (2) contacting the gas stream provided in (1) with a catalyst for obtaining a mixture M1 comprising one or more dimerization products of the one or more alkenes, wherein the catalyst in (2) comprises a zeolitic material having a framework structure type selected from the group consisting of MOR, BEA, FER, MFI, TON, FAU, and mixtures of two or more thereof, wherein the framework structure of the zeolitic material comprises YO, wherein Y stands for one or more tetravalent elements.

Catalyzed process for the dimerization of alkenes

A process for preparing an aromatic isocyanate by direct carbonylation of a nitro aromatic compound by reacting the nitro aromatic compound with carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalyst, characterized in that the catalyst contains a multi metallic material comprising one or more binary intermetallic phases of the general formula ABwherein: A is one or more element selected from Ni, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ir, Pt and Ag, B is one or more element selected from Sn, Sb, Pb, Zn, Ga, In, Ge and As, x is in the range 0.1-10, y in is in the range 0.1-10.

The present invention relates to a process for the conversion of ethylene oxide to 2-aminoethanol and/or ethane-1,2-diamine and/or linear polyethylenimines of the formula HN&#x2014;(CHCHNH)&#x2014;CHCH&#x2014;NHwherein n&#x2265;1 comprising (i) providing a catalyst comprising a zeolitic material comprising YOand XO, wherein Y is a tetravalent element and X is a trivalent element; (ii) providing a gas stream comprising ethylene oxide and ammonia; (iii) contacting the catalyst provided in (i) with the gas stream provided in (ii) for converting ethylene oxide to 2-aminoethanol and/or ethane-1,2-diamine and/or linear polyethylenimines.
