Abstract

Primary products of the interaction of terminal olefins C5–C8 with Re2O7/Al2O3 catalysts are established. The rupture of the C=C bond of the olefin occurs with formation of a carbene localized at a rhenium ion, with the alkylidene fragment in the produced carbene being the CH2=group of the terminal alkene molecule. Thus M=CH2 species and lower normal α-olefins are formed.
