Procedure

Hydrogenation of butadiene in a mixture of butadiene and isobutene was carried out in a batch autoclave using the above catalytic composite. Selective hydrogenation of butadiene to 1-butene and 2-butenes and n-butane was obtained between temperatures of 50-90° C. and pressures of 160-300 psig in a batch autoclave, for a mixture containing 5.4 wt % butadiene in isobutene. The catalytic composite weight was between 1.63 to 2.45 g with Pd loading of 0.31 wt %. In about 2-4 hours, 100% hydrogenation of butadiene was obtained.
