Abstract
In the process of olefin disproportionation, a feedstock containing predominatly mono-olefin the feedstock is charged at elevated temperature into a catalytic conversion zone in contact with mesoporous acid olefin conversion catalyst under selective olefin interconversion conditions. The improvement is characterized by a mesoporous acid metallosilicate crystalline catalyst material having Bronsted acid sites in a hexagonal lattice structure, said catalyst material having substantially uniform pores in hexagonal arrangement with a pore size of about 20 to 100 Angstroms units. In the preferred embodiments the olefinic feedstock is reacted for less than 10 seconds in contact with MCM-41 mesoporous metallosilicate catalyst under partial reaction conditions sufficient to provide increased yield of C4 alkene having a ratio of isobutene to normal butenes greater than equilibrium.
