1386735 Disproportionating C 14 -C 28 olefins GULF RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT CO 12 Feb 1973 [17 Feb 1972] 6717/73 Heading C5E A mono-olefin having 14 to 28 carbon atoms is disproportionated to give a mixture of olefins of higher and lower carbon number by contact with a catalyst comprising (i) Al 2 O 3 , (ii) Mo or Re and (iii) Ag or Cu at 25-250‹ C. The feed is preferably an α-olefin. The Mo or Re may be present in amount 4-12 wt. per cent and the Cu or Ag to amount 0À1-6 wt. per cent based on the total catalyst.
