Reaction Steps
The [W]s—H catalyst (55.7 mg; 4.96% W/SiO2; 15.01 micromol of W) supported on silica is prepared as described above and then the reactor is charged with propane at atmospheric pressure (propane/W=790) and heated at 150° C. under batch conditions. A mixture of methane, of ethane, of isobutane, of butane, of pentane and, in a smaller proportion, of isopentane and of hexane is gradually obtained according to the following Table 5.
