✦ Synopsis

Alumina modified by various fluorine containing compounds has been studied in reactions of nbutene. Combination of the results thus obtained with pieces of information from the literature leads to the following model. Skeletal isomerization takes place on Lewis acid sites as a monomolecular conversion, while on a catalyst with BrCnsted acid sites the bimolecular mechanism can prevail. Experiments with higher alkenes support this picture.

A theoretical study was carried out in order to characterize the changes produced by the presence of sulfate on the alumina surface. A molecular orbital approach of the extended HΓΌckel (EH) type together with dynamic molecular calculation were performed to evaluate adsorption and desorption energies
