Abstract

Thermoregulated organic biphasic system composed of triethylene glycol monomethyl ether (TGME) and n-heptane was first applied to the hydrogenation of 1-octene. Under the optimal conditions: P(H2)=5.0MPa, T=80°C, t=3h, 1-octene/Ru=1000 (molar ratio), the yield of n-octane reached up to 99.6%. Furthermore, the simply decanted catalyst could be reused for 10 times without apparent loss of catalytic activity.
