Question

how to convert n-haxane to 2-methyl pentane?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

A study was made of the catalytic properties of a 20% rhenium-alumina catalyst, treated with hydrogen sulfide, in connection with the conversion of cyclohexane, methylcyclopentane, and n-hexane at 500–510‡, 5 atm, pressure of hydrogen, Ν=1.0 hr−1 and H2∶HC=5.

2.

The rhenium-sulfide-alumina catalyst promoted the reactions: dehydrogenation of cyclohexane. dehydroisomerization of methylcyclopentane, and dehydrocyclization of n-hexane with formation of benzene, and proved to be more active and stable in the above-mentioned reactions than a rhenium-alumina catalyst.
