Summary
-
1.
Rhenium, deposited on charcoal, is an active catalyst for cyclohexane dehydrogenation. It is found that the nature of the carrier considerably affects the activity of rhenium catalysts.
-
2.
Over rhenium deposited on charcoal, n-heptane is dehydrocyclized and cumene is dehydrogenated to α-methylstyrene.
