- Fluoride-containing ILs were employed as additives and their promoting performance was investigated in H2SO4 alkylation process.
- New species of HF, [PF6âxâ2y(HSO4)x(SO4)y]â and [SbF6âxâ2y(HSO4)x(SO4)y]â were formed through acidolysis of [Bmim][PF6] or [Bmim][SbF6] in H2SO4.
- The possible promoting mechanism of fluoride-containing ILs was proposed.
In this work, the alkylation of isobutane and butene, catalyzed by sulfuric acid in the presence of the fluoride-containing ionic liquids [Bmim][PF6] and [Bmim][SbF6], was investigated. The use of the binary mixture catalysts brought to a higher C8 selectivity and longer catalyst lifetime, compared with the results obtained when working with sulfuric acid only. This was attributed to the formation of new species when [Bmim][PF6] or [Bmim][SbF6] are added to sulfuric acid. The acidolysis of [Bmim][PF6] and [Bmim][SbF6] was accompanied by the release of hydrogen fluoride (HF) and the decomposition of anions to [PF6âxâ2y(HSO4)x(SO4)y]â and [SbF6âxâ2y(HSO4)x(SO4)y]â, respectively. The presence of these new species after acidolysis was measured and confirmed by ion chromatography, 1H-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), 19F-NMR and 31P-NMR. The production of HF and the complexation of anions and carbenium ions both play an important role in stabilizing the carbenium ion and improving the catalytic performance.
