Abstract
Relative initial reaction rates for both double bond isomerization and direct esterification with heptanoic acid were determined for the series of linear 1-alkenes from 1-octene to 1-octadecene. In competitive reactions between two 1-alkenes on Amberlyst®15 catalyst at 90 °C, rates for both double bond isomerization and esterification decreased with increasing carbon chain length. Data suggested each 1-alkene had two different adsorption coefficients on the catalyst, one for an isomerization site and one for a site for the addition reaction. Results were consistent with previous data suggesting that Amberlyst®15 catalyst has two different types of active sites.
