The catalyst for the dimerization of propylene into methyl-4-pentene-1 comprises potassium (K) and potassium carbonate (K2CO3) and is characterized in that it further contains at least one metal (M) selected amongst manganese, chromium, cadmium, nickel, palladium and titanium. It may also include copper. The method for preparing the catalyst comprises the following steps carried out in the presence of an inert liquid having a high boiling point. In a first step, a suspension of potassium carbonate is obtained in the inert liquid. In a second step, the metal or metals (M), and optionally copper, are introduced in powder form into the highly stirred reaction medium. In a third step, after bringing the reaction medium to a temperature higher than the potassium melting temperature, potassium is introduced under high stirring conditions. In the fourth step, the reaction medium is brought to a temperature comprised between 140 and 180 DEG C during a length of time comprised between 1 and 3 hours, and the reaction medium is then allowed to cool down to room temperature. The process for dimerization of propylene into methyl-4-pentene-1 uses the catalyst disclosed hereabove. |
