A process for the dimerization of alpha-alkenes having 2 to 12 C atoms in the presence of an alkanediol solvent and of a novel catalytic system formed by combining:- a) a palladium(II) compound, b) a chelate ligand comprising a compound containing at least two N coordinating atoms which are connected through a chain comprising two C atoms, > 2.0 mol chelate ligand per gram-atom Pd being used, c) a protonic acid, except hydrohalogenic acids, and d) a salt of Cu, Fe, Zn, Sn, Mn, V, Al or a Group 6b metal, except a halide. e |
