SYNTHESIS GAS TO HYDROCARBON PROCESSES WITH NEUTRAL OR NEGATIVE CARBON DIOXIDE SELECTIVITY

A process for preparing C.sub.2 to C.sub.4 hydrocarbons includes introducing a feed stream into a reaction zone of a reactor, the feed stream comprising hydrogen gas and carbon monoxide. An additional stream is introduced into the reaction zone of the reactor, the additional stream comprising carbon dioxide. A combined stream that includes the feed stream and the additional stream is converted into a product stream comprising C.sub.2 to C.sub.4 hydrocarbons in the reaction zone in the presence of a hybrid catalyst. The hybrid catalyst includes a mixed metal oxide catalyst component, and a microporous catalyst component. The process operates at a gas hourly space velocity in excess of 2500 hr.sup.-1 and effectively yields a net carbon dioxide selectivity of less than 5.0% and a productivity of C.sub.2-C.sub.4 hydrocarbons greater than 75 g hydrocarbons per kilogram of catalyst per hour.

ALKANE DEHYDROGENATION PROCESS

Disclosed herein are processes for dehydrogenation of an alkane to an alkene using an iridium pincer complex. In the dehydrogenation reactions, hydrogen that is co-formed during the process must be removed for the chemical reaction to proceed and to prevent the excess hydrogen from poisoning the catalyst. In one embodiment the process comprises providing an alkane feedstock comprising at least one alkane and contacting the alkane with an iridium pincer complex in the presence of a hydrogen acceptor selected from the group consisting of ethylene, propene, or mixtures to form an alkene product. The processes disclosed herein can accomplish facile, low-temperature transfer dehydrogenation of alkanes with unprecedented selectivities and TONs at a reasonable rate of conversion.
