Abstract

A method of synthesizing hydrocarbons from smaller hydrocarbons includes the steps of hydrocarbon halogenation, simultaneous oligomerization and hydrogen halide neutralization, and product recovery, with a metal-oxygen cataloreactant used to facilitate carbon-carbon coupling. Treatment with air or oxygen liberates halogen and regenerates the cataloreactant.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S)

[0001] This application is a continuation-in-part, and claims priority of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10 / 893,418, filed Jul. 15, 2004, currently pending, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 487,364, filed Jul. 15, 2003, the entire contents of both applications being incorporated by reference herein.FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] This invention relates generally to hydrocarbon oligomerization, and more particularly to a method of making hydrocarbons using cataloreactants. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Scientists have long sought efficient ways to convert methane and other alkanes into higher hydrocarbons, including light olefins and gasoline-range materials. Efficient processes could create value in a number of ways, including: facilitating the utilization of remotely located stranded natural gas through its conversion into more easily transportable liquid fuels and feedstocks, and allowing the use ...
