Abstract
n-Paraffins, particularly those having from 5 to 20 carbon atoms, are selectively dehydrogenated to n-olefins by a process employing a catalyst consisting essentially of a noble metal supported on a cation mordenite. Selectivity is achieved by the addition of an organic base, such as quinoline, as catalyst modifier to the n-paraffin stream.
