This invention relates to a process for producing an olefin product having an enhanced alpha olefin content from an olefin feedstock containing internal olefins or a mixture of internal and alpha olefins which includes: (a) contacting the feedstock with an anthracene and a double-bond isomerization catalyst at a temperature ranging from about 150 DEG to about 275 DEG C. to form an olefin adduct with anthracene, (b) separating the adduct from the product of step (a), (c) heating the separated adduct at a temperature ranging from about 250 DEG to about 400 DEG C. to produce anthracene and an olefin product enhanced in alpha olefin content over the alpha olefin content of the feedstock, and (d) separating anthracene from the product of step (c) to produce the product enhanced in alpha olefin. Linear olefins are a preferred feedstock.
