PROCESS FOR DEHYDROGENATING ORGANIC COMPOUND IN THE PRESENCE OF SUPPORTED BIMETALLIC CATALYST WITH STRONG INTERACTION BETWEEN GROUP VIII METAL AND TIN

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a process for dehydrogenating an organic compound, in particular paraffins and naphthenes to produce an alkene and an aromatic compound in the optimized yield. SOLUTION: This process for dehydrogenating the organic compound, in particular the paraffins and naphthenes is carried out in the presence of a supported catalyst comprising a group VIII metal such as platinum and tin, at least a portion of which interacts strongly with the group VIII metal in the catalyst in the reduced state. In the partially oxidized state, the catalyst contains at least 10% of tin in the form of a reduced tin species with an oxidation state 0 and the species has an isomer shift within the range of 0.80-2.60 mm/s and a quadrupolar splitting within the range of 0.65-2.00 mm/s.
