Abstract
A process for oligomerizing olefins having 2 to 5 carbon atoms in the molecule employing a novel sulfur containing molybdenum supported catalyst composed of from about 5.0 to 11.0 weight percent molybdenum, 3.0 to 7.0 weight percent sulfur and the remainder support. The catalyst may have present additional members such as platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, cobalt, nickel, rhenium and tungsten.
Claims8
a process for oligomerizing an olefin having 2 to 5 carbon atoms which comprises contacting said olefin in the presence of a sulfur containing molybdenum supported catalyst comprising from about 5.0 to 11.0 weight percent molybdenum, 3.0 to 7.0 weight percent sulfur and the remainder support, said catalyst prepared by heating a composite comprising a sulfur containing molybdenum compound on a support at a temperature of about 300.degree. to 700.degree. C. in an oxidizing atmosphere.
