964. ------. [HEINRICH, R. L.] (Standard Oil Development Co.). Removal of Oxygenated Compounds From Olefins. United States Patent 2,542,516, Feb. 20, 1951; appl. filed Oct. 11, 1947, Serial No. 779,285, 6 claims (Cl. 260-683.15). Chem. Abs., vol. 45, 1951, p. 4440.

Oxygenated compounds are removed from olefins in the naptha-boiling range produced by the Fischer-Tropsch hydrocarbon synthesis by treatment at 60º-100º F. with AlCl₃ containing 0.1-2 mol. % H₂O. The olefins treated in this way can be polymerized to lubricating oils with AlCl₃, and the resulting sludge can serve as the treating agent for removing oxygenated compounds.
