A composition can include a Rho zeolite with a RHO topology having a Si to B ratio or a Si to Al ratio greater than or equal to 8. Making such a composition can include heating an aqueous reaction mixture having a molar ratio of atomic Si to atomic B of about 4 to about 50 or a molar ratio of atomic Si to atomic Al of about 4 to about 50 in the presence of a C-Cdiquat of N,2-dimethylbenzimidazole structure directing agent to a temperature of at least 75° C. to produce a Rho zeolite.

Highly siliceous form of zeolite RHO

Sulfur-tolerant reforming catalysts that include bulk alumina in the catalyst support are provided. The sulfur-tolerant reforming catalysts can include a sulfur-tolerant catalytic metal to facilitate reforming. The catalyst can further include a support material that includes at least some alumina as bulk alumina and/or octahedrally coordinated alumina. The sulfur-tolerant reforming catalysts can be regenerated, such as periodically regenerated, under relatively mild conditions that allow the catalysts to maintain reforming activity in the presence of 1 vppm to 1000 vppm of sulfur in the feed for reforming.

Reforming using sulfur-tolerant reforming catalyst

Compositions comprising a sulfonated reaction product or a salt thereof may be prepared from a cyclohexylbenzene compound that has been alkylated with an olefin of formula RRCCH, wherein Ris a C-Chydrocarbyl group, and Ris H or a C-Chydrocarbyl group. Methods for sulfonating an alkylated cyclohexylbenzene compound prepared from a cyclohexylbenzene compound that has been alkylated with an olefin of formula RRCCH, wherein Ris a C-Chydrocarbyl group, and Ris H or a C-Chydrocarbyl group may comprise contacting the alkylated cyclohexylbenzene compound with a sulfonating reagent; forming a sulfonated reaction product; and converting the sulfonated reaction product into a sulfonate salt.

Amphiphilic cyclohexylbenzene compounds derived from alpha olefins or vinylidene alpha olefin dimers

Provided herein are novel extended branched alcohols having a lower branching number and improved biodegradability when compared to other branched alcohols. Also provided are novel extended branched ethoxylates having surfactant properties which can be more efficient in reducing surface tension when compared to the ethoxylated form of other branched alcohols. Further provided are novel syntheses of making extended branched alcohols and extended branched ethoxylates.
