Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE:
The disclosure relates to the selective hydrogenation of diolefin hydrocarbons to form olefin hydrocarbons, said hydrogenation being carried out in the presence of a palladium base catalyst. Selectivity is as close as possible to 100%
if an aqueous zinc solution is added to the diolefin hydrocarbon which is to be hydrogenated.

Description

~ 3 5 '~'he ~re~ent invention rela-tes to a process ~or the select.ive hydrogena-tion of diolefin hydrocarbons -to ~orm ole~in hydrocarbons It is already known that it is possible to hydrogenate diole~in compounds in the presence of palladium catalystO However in all these cases a mixture o~ ole~in and saturated oompounds is obtained with an uncontrolled selectively o~ the olefin :~
compounasO
To reach satls~actory results and to stop the subsequent hydrogenation o~ the olefin compound into a saturated compound9 it has been proposed to partially deactivate the palladium ;-catalyst7 by impregnation or coprecipitation Y~ith salts of Pb, .
. -:, , - .
~ Zn~ Hg, Cd, '~ht Sn, etc~
Howevex said impregnation or coprecipi-tation methods -~
aro di~ficul-t to be carried out in practice, because the de-activation conditions o~ the catalyst (temperature, deactivating ~alt concentration, operating time) are very critical; as a matter o~ ~act, by operating under conditions which are only slightly di~erent ~rom those which are optimum9 there are obtained :.
20 catalysts ~hich are either non selective or ~holly deactivated. .
It is also known that in order to obtain high selectivity catalyst it is necessary that the impregnatio~ or coprecipitation ~.
treatment be carrled out at a rather elevated temperature ( 80 to 1000a)~ which, on the other ha~d, is particularly di~advantageous in the case of supported catalysts.
We have now ~ound that it is possible to obtain selec- ~:
tivity as close a~ 100%9 in the hydrogenation o~ diole~in ~
oompounds to ~orm ole~in compounds, by operating at relatively : ~ -low temperature or in any case at a temperature ranging from 20C
to 60oa, by employing conventional palladium catalysts, possibly supported ~or insta~ce on calcium carbonate or barium sul~ate a~d by adding an aqueous solution of zinc salt to the reaction mi.xtuxe~

-- - . . - .

.: -' ' . ': ' .

3 5 ' Therefore~ by opera-ting according to -the present invention it is possible -to obtain selectivities as high as 100% wi-thou-t ha~-i~g to subject the palladium catalys-t to the hot impregnating or coprecipita-ti,ng operations which are very expensive and complicated9 because the zinc is added oontinuously as an aqueous solution to the hydrogenation mixtureO Beside the above practical and economical adva~tage9 the presen-t invention represents a *ur-ther progress in that the li~e of the catalyst employed accord-ing -to the invention~ at same selectivity values, is longer than 1o the li~e o~ the known deactivated catalysts According to the present invention the passage of material to be hydrogena-ted and zinc salt over the catalyst in , the course o~ the continuous tests can be a~fected ma~y times Y~hile ~ ' always obtaining very good selectivityO The anion o-~ the zinc salt has no importance as to the selecti~ity9 however it is , -preferable that the salt have a high solubility in waterO In this connection the chloride, sulfate7 nitrate, acetate and oxala~e are quite suitable~ ' ' ' ~' ?he amount o~ salt can ~ary ~rom OoOl to 5% and pre~era-bly ~rom 0.01 to 2% by weight with respect -to the diolefin oompoundO
~ he minlmum amount o~ water necessary for a good reaction course should be enough to dissolve the ~inc salt undex the reaction condition~
It is there~ore necessary to have a ratio water/zinc ,-salt at least of 1/1 by weight.
On the other hand it is ad~isable to u-tilize a wa-ter/
zinc salt ratio w~lich is not higher than 50/1 in order to ha~e a satisfactory reaction rate.
In the absence o~ water the hydrogenation o~ t~e diole~in compounds i,s not stopped at the 1st stage~ i~e~ at the ~ormation o~ the ole~in compounds, but it goes on -till saturated compoun~s :
~, ' ' , ~ O~S 3 S

are produced~ It i.s pre~erable to add an amino compound to the reaction mix-ture generally ammonia, in very low amount.s, pre~erably lower than 0,5% by weight vrith respect to the diole~in compound, even i-~ higher amounts9 u~ to 20 to 30% do not adversely e~ect the reactionO
The present invention can be applied to continuous or discontinuous prooesses in a wide range o~ temperature~ for instance between 20C and 60C, and o~ pressure~ Por ins-tance from 1 to 50 absolute atmospheres~
It is to be noted that the amount of salt which is to be added to the reaction mixture, within the abovementioned ranges, depends on the reaction rate, i~eO on the hydrogen pressure and the temperature, and also on the eE~iciency o~ stirring. ;
By operating according to the present invention, the absorption o~ hydrogen ~rom the reacting ~ixture stops a~ter one oE the double bonds has been hydrogenated into a simple bond;
then, by allowing the reacted mixture to be kept at the reaction conditions ~or relatively long times, no substantial further hydrogenation occurs O ~ .
The prese~t invention will be better illustrated by the ~ollowing operative examples.

EXAMP~?. 1 Cyclopentadiene was hydrogenated in the presence of 2%
by weight of a Pd base catalysts on CaC03 as catalyst carrier (5% Pd) at the temperatures o~ 30C. 0.2% o:E ammonia, 0.2% of dihydrated zinc acetate and o.a,% by weight of water w~re added into an autoclave kept under stirring by means o~ a stirrer consisting o~a hollow shaft ~or allowing a recirculation of hydro~
hydrogen~ '~he hydrogen pressure was 5 kg/cm20 r~he course of the reaction was controlled by gas~
chromatography analysis perEormed on samples drawn at regular ~046535 in te:r ~,r-~ls .
~ -~ter 90 minute,s there was no more hydrogen absorption and the selec-tivity as cyclopentane~

cyclopentane __ _ _ % by moles cyclopentane ~ cyclopentane was 99O4~ ~t the start, cyclopentadiene wa~q practically absent. ~, After other 90 minutes, under the reaction conditions the selec- ~
tively was higher than 99~0. -EX~PIE 2 ~ he process was carried out as in example 1, except that the ~nount of water was 1%. A~ter the starting cyclopenta-diene had di.sappeared9 the selectivity o~ the obtained produc-t as cyclopentene was 99.2% ana it was practically constant also a-~ter a long period o~ time during which the product remained under the reaction conditionsO

~he process was carried out as in example 1, except ~ -that no water was addedn ~he selectivity as cyclopentene, a~ter the disappearance o~ dicyclopentadiene was 89%; by keeping the --product under the reaction conditions ~or another 30 minutes the selectivity decreased to 74% becaus0 o~ the ~ormation o~
cyclopentane and9 a~ter another 30 minutes7 the selectivity decreased to 60%.

EXAMPIæ 4 and 5 .. ~................................................. ~
Isoprene and pentadiene were subjected to hydrogenation according to example 1.
A~ter the total disappearance o~ the diolefins, there were obtained mixtures of ole~ine isomers with selectivities respec-tively o~' 99O1 and 98.7.
