A method of producing single carbon number olefins and/or a narrow distribution of olefin products on demand and not as part of a distribution is described. The invention also relates to the olefins so produced, including, e.g., 1-octene, and Cn-olefins. There is also described a method for differentiating a desired internal carbon position for purposes of functionalization and scission of linear hydrocarbon chains at the desired internal carbon position. The invention provides for differentiation of the internal carbons in a linear carbon chain by introducing a methyl branch at the desired location in the linear hydrocarbon chain. The invention also provides for production of a Cn-olefin from any other Cn-olefin. Additionally, there is disclosed a method of scission of the hydrocarbon chain with an internal double bond fixed in a desired tertiary location by a methyl branch to form an alpha-olefin of desired length. |
