Abstract

A process for the metathesis of linear or branched starting alkanes involves, first, grafting metal atoms in the form of hydrides to a solid oxide, such that the grafted metal atoms are dispersed over the solid oxide, which effects a solid catalyst, and second, reacting the starting alkanes over the solid catalyst.
