 1704.    KAZANSKIĬ, B. A., SERGIENKO, S. R., AND ZELINSKIĬ, N. D.  Contact Cyclization of Paraffinic Hydrocarbons.  Compt. Rend. Acad. Sci. U.R.S.S., vol. 27, 1940, pp. 664-669 (in English); Chem. Abs., vol. 35, 1941, p. 1387.

        Fraction of synthin, boiling at 83°-138°, containing 11.84% unsaturates and having 66.0 aniline point and 10 octane number, was passed over catalysts at 425°-500°, giving condensates having the following values for % unsaturates, % aromatics, aniline point (maximum), and octane number:  90% silica gel and 10% Cr2O3 (preheated in H2 to 450°) at 450°, 5.30, 11.37, 57.5, --; 1:1 mixture of silica gel-Cr2O3 (reduced in H2 at 450°) at 425°-450°, 5.60, 14.5, 58.0, 22; 91.5% Cr2O3 and 8.5% NiO at 450°, 6.03, 16.38, 48.4, --; 85% Al2O3 and 15% UO3 (preheated in N2 to 450°) at 500°, 11.26, 11.40, 56.2, 26; 62% Al2O3, 24% Cr2O3, and 14% UO3 (preheated in N2 at 475°) at 475°, 9.78, 26.42, 32.3, --; 80% Al2O3 and 20% MoO3 (preheated in N2 to 450°) at 450°, 6.03, 15.74, 52.8, 24; and Zn chromate at 475°, 20.84, l, 58.9, --.  Platinized charcoal (containing 23% Pt and prepared by impregnating activated charcoal with H2PtCl6 solution and heating in H2 at 300°-310°) at 300°-356° did not aromatize the synthin fraction.  After removal of unsaturated hydrocarbons from the synthin fraction by means of Katwinkel mixture (see abs. 1678) the platinized charcoal at 350° aromatized the remaining hydrocarbons to approximately the same degree as with octane.  Air blowing has no effect on the activity of Zn chromate catalyst.
