Method for isomerizing olefins using acidic composite catalysts

摘要

This invention provides a method for isomerizing olefins using a catalyst product which is a composite of a perfluorinated polymersulfonic acid and an anion-stabilizing agent such as hexafluoroisopropanol or trifluoroaetic acid. The composite catalyst has a significantly higher Bronsted acidity than the perfluorinated polymersulfonic acid.
