Abstract: A process is provided which comprises preparing an olefin oligomerization or trimerization catalyst system and producing olefins in the presence of the olefin oligomerization or trimerization catalyst system and a solvent, wherein said catalyst system preparation comprises the steps of first contacting a chromium source and a pyrrole-containing compound to form a chromium/pyrrole mixture; second, contacting said chromium/pyrrole mixture with a metal alkyl to form a catalyst system; and then contacting said catalyst system with an alpha-olefin, preferably ethylene.

Abstract: A process is provided to modify an olefin production catalyst system which comprises contacting an olefin production catalyst system with ethylene prior to use. A second embodiment of the invention comprises contacting an aluminum alkyl and a pyrrole-containing compound prior to contacting a chromium containing compound and prior to contacting an olefin. A process also is provided to trimerize and/or oligomerize olefins with the novel, modified olefin catalyst production systems. These modified olefin production catalyst systems can produce less solids, such as, for example, polymer, during a trimerization reaction.

Abstract: A process for substantially stabilizing the color of a fluid which comprises an olefin is disclosed. The process comprises contacting the fluid with a composition, which comprises aluminum, zirconium and a borate, under a condition effective to stabilize the color of the fluid.

Abstract: Novel chromium-containing compounds, such as, for example, chromium pyrrolides, are prepared by forming a mixture of a chromium salt, a metal amide, and an electron pair donor solvent, such as, for example, an ether. These novel chromium-containing, or chromium pyrrolide, compounds can be used either unsupported or supported on an inorganic oxide support, with a metal alkyl and an unsaturated hydrocarbon, to trimerize, oligomerize, and/or polymerize olefins.

Abstract: Novel chromium-containing compounds are prepared by forming a mixture of a chromium salt, a metal amide, and an ether. These novel chromium-containing, or chromium pyrrolide, compounds, with a metal alkyl and an unsaturated hydrocarbon, can be used as a cocatalyst system in the presence of an olefin polymerization catalyst system to produce a comonomer in-situ. The resultant polymer, although produced from predominately one monomer, has characteristics of a copolymer.

Abstract: A process is provided to inhibit trimerization catalyst system activity which comprises the sequential steps of contacting a reactor effluent stream with alcohol; removing any desired olefin products; adding an aqueous base to the non-olefin portion; removing a precipitate; separating the aqueous and organic phases; and adding an acid to the aqueous phase.
