Abstract:
This invention is a process for the alkylation of isoparaffin with olefins using a catalyst system comprising certain transition aluminas promoted with a Lewis acid (preferably BF3), and free Lewis acid. The product alkylate is a complex mixture of branched paraffins suitable for use as a high octane blending component for motor fuels.

2092569 9204977 PCTABS00011 This invention is to: a) a catalyst system, b) a component of that system comprising certain transition aluminas promoted with a Lewis acid (preferably BF3), and c) a catalytic process for the alkylation of isoparaffin with olefins. The catalyst component is produced by contacting the transition alumina with the Lewis acid at relatively low temperatures or at those temperatures at which certain characteristic peaks appear in the component's nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum. The catalyst system comprises that component and an additional amount of free Lewis acid. The process entails olefin/isoparaffin alkylation using the catalyst component and its allied catalyst system.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an acid catalyst complex comprising an organosulfonic acid having at least one covalent carbon-fluorine bond or one covalent carbon-phosphorus bond provided by a phosphono radical which has been contacted with a Lewis Acid to produce a catalyst complex containing said Lewis Acid. The present invention also provides a process for the conversion of a reactant into a reaction product in the presence of said catalyst complex. In particular, the catalyst complex is useful for providing a high octane alkylate stream by converting a mixture comprising isoparaffins and olefins into said alkylate in the presence of said catalyst complex.

Abstract:
This invention is directed to a catalyst system for use in the alkylation of isoparaffin with olefins. More specifically, this invention is directed to an improved catalyst system containing specified amounts of water and a component of that system comprising certain transition aluminas promoted with a Lewis acid (preferably BF3). In addition, this invention is a catalytic process for the alkylation of isoparaffin with olefins. The catalyst component is produced by contacting the transition alumina with the Lewis acid at relatively low temperatures. The catalyst system comprises that component and an additional amount of free Lewis acid. The process entails isoparaffin alkylation with olefins using the catalyst component and its allied catalyst system.
