A kind of catalyzer of preparing 1-hexene from ethene by oligomerization
The present invention relates to olefin oligomerization catalyst, a kind of chromium-based catalysts and application thereof that is used for preparing 1-hexene from ethene by oligomerization of more specifically saying so.
The 1--hexene is polyolefinic important comonomer, method by ethylene oligomerization selectively producing 1-hexene, at J.Chem.Soc, chem.commun. (1989, the 674-675 page or leaf) reported in that homogeneous phase ternary chromium-based catalysts composition catalyzed ethylene oligomerisation selectivity makes the method for 1-hexene, but the used catalyst of this method is active and selectivity is all lower.
Reported a kind of improved chromium-based catalysts composition among the EP 0608447A1, be used for ethylene oligomerization and/or copolymerization, wherein used a kind of compound that contains chromium as one of component of catalyst composition; Use a kind of azole compounds as two of the component of chromium-based catalysts composition; Having adopted a kind of is activator as three of the component of this catalyst composition with lewis' acid and/or metal alkyl compound; Also point out simultaneously, halogen source also can choose any one kind of them in the catalyst system as four of the component in this catalyst composition, this halogen source both can be inorganic halides, also can be the Organohalogen compounds of numerous types, with former chromium-based catalysts ratio, this catalyzer is greatly increased to the selectivity of 1-hexene, but its catalytic activity is not high.
Used Sn (OSO among the JP 0832519

2Compound replaces the halogen source of the 4th component among the EP0608447A1, as isocaprylic acid chromium, 2, the improving agent of 5-dimethyl pyrrole and triethyl aluminum three-way catalyst has formed a kind of quaternary chromium-based catalysts composition, and the activity and the selectivity of this quaternary chromium-based catalysts are significantly improved.
Inquired into the effect of the organic alkane compound of a class halo among the JP08134131 as the improving agent in the chromium-based catalysts composition, wherein used with contain on adjacent two carbon atoms of end three above halogen atoms as the saturated haloalkane of feature as by isocaprylic acid chromium, 2,5-dimethyl arsenic is coughed up and the improving agent of the three-way catalyst that triethyl aluminum is formed, and its catalytic activity increases.
USP5 has reported in 910,619 and has adopted 1,2,3,4,5, the conduct of 6-HEXACHLOROBUTADIENE is by isocaprylic acid chromium, 2, the improving agent of 5-dimethyl pyrrole and triethyl aluminum ternary system catalyzer is formed the four-way catalyst composition, though this activity of such catalysts increases, but still can not meet the demands, people wish further to improve the performance of catalyzer.
From the above, keep under the geostationary situation in three main components of chromium-based catalysts, people are concentrating on to screen suitable improving agent, to expect further to improve the performance of the chromium-based catalysts that is used for ethylene oligomerization selectively producing 1-hexene, make the selectivity of existing high catalytic activity of catalyzer and high purpose product 1-hexene, make the poly growing amount of by product few as far as possible again.
