Abstract: The invention describes a process for oligomerization of olefins into compounds or into a mixture of compounds of general formula CpH2p with 4?p?80 that employs a catalytic composition that comprises at least one organometallic complex of an element of group IV that is selected from titanium, zirconium, and hafnium, wherein the organometallic complex contains at least one alkoxy-type ligand that is functionalized by a heteroatom selected from nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur, or by an aromatic group.

Abstract: A process for producing a base for a fuel from a C2 ethanol feedstock, by a first stage for oligomerization of the feedstock into a hydrocarbon effluent that contains a mixture of olefins for the most part having between 4 and 30 carbons, and contains a C10-C24 fraction that has a mean linearity that is greater than 60%, in the presence of a homogeneous catalytic system that contains a metal precursor of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, nickel and/or iron, a second stage for oligomerization of a portion of the effluent that is obtained from stage a), into a hydrocarbon effluent that contains a mixture of olefins for the most part having between 4 and 30 carbon atoms, and containing a C10-C24 fraction that has a mean linearity that is less than 50%, in the presence of a homogeneous catalytic system.

Abstract: The invention describes a process for oligomerization of olefins into compounds or into a mixture of compounds of general formula CpH2p with 4?p?80 that employs a catalytic composition that comprises at least one organometallic complex of an element of group IV that is selected from among titanium, zirconium, or hafnium, whereby said organometallic complex contains at least one alkoxy-type ligand that is functionalized by a heteroatom that is selected from among nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus or sulfur, or by an aromatic group.

Abstract: This invention describes a process for the production of bases for fuels (such as diesel and/or kerosene) from a C2 ethanol feedstock, whereby said process comprises at least a first stage for oligomerization of said feedstock into at least one hydrocarbon effluent that comprises a mixture of olefins that for the most part have between 4 and 30 carbons, whereby said olefin mixture comprises a C10-C24 fraction that has a mean linearity that is greater than 60%, in the presence of a homogeneous catalytic system that comprises at least one metal precursor that is selected from among the group that is formed by titanium, zirconium, hafnium, nickel and iron, taken by themselves or in a mixture, a second stage for oligomerization of at least a portion of the effluent that is obtained from stage a), into at least one hydrocarbon effluent that comprises a mixture of olefins that for the most part have between 4 and 30 carbon atoms, with said olefin mixture comprising a C10-C24 fraction that has a mean linearity that

Abstract: In a process for liquid phase carbonylation of alcohols by carbon monoxide, the carbonylation reaction is carried out in a reaction zone at a temperature of 50° C. to 150° C. at a pressure in the range 0.5 MPa to 20 MPa in the presence of at least one catalyst comprising at least one rhodium and/or iridium complex and a halogenated promoter in at least one non-aqueous ionic liquid comprising at least one salt with general formula Q+A?, in which Q+ represents a quaternary ammonium and/or a quaternary phosphonium cation, said salt having a melting point of less than 90° C.; the non-aqueous ionic liquid containing at least the major portion of the catalyst is separated; and the separated non-aqueous ionic liquid containing at least the major portion of the catalyst is returned to the reaction zone.

Abstract: A catalytic composition for the dimerization, the codimerization or the oligomerization of olefins is obtained by bringing into contact at least one nickel compound that contains a heterocyclic carbene with at least one hydrocarbylaluminum halide and optionally at least one organic solvent. It is used in a process of dimerization, codimerization or oligomerization of olefins.

Abstract: A catalytic composition for the dimerization, the codimerization or the oligomerization of olefins results from the dissolution of at least one nickel complex that contains a heterocyclic carbene in a liquid mixture that comprises at least one ammonium halide or quaternary phosphonium halide, at least one aluminum halide and optionally at least one organometallic aluminum compound. It is used in a process of dimerization, codimerization or oligomerization of olefins.
