A process for converting light paraffins (especially C₃-C₅) to middle distillate and higher boiling range liquid hydrocarbons by (1) oxygen or air oxidation of iso-paraffins to alkyl hydroperoxides; (2) conversion of alkyl hydroperoxides to dialkyl peroxides; (3) radical coupling of paraffins using the dialkyl peroxides as radical initiators forming heavier hydrocarbon products; and (4) fractionation of the heavy hydrocarbon products. The net reaction is catalytically converting light paraffins to heavier hydrocarbons using oxygen or air to effect the conversion.

A process for preparing hydroperoxides which comprises oxidizing hydrocarbon by a gas containing oxygen in the presence of a specific compound and converting them selectively to corresponding hydroperoxides. The specific compound is the compound that can capture radicals. The preferable example may be a compound selected from radicals of oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, carbon or silicon or a compound that forms radicals of these in the reaction system. The present invention can be applied to oxidation of hydrocarbons including arylalkylhydrocarbons such as cumene, m-diisopropylbenzene, p-diisopropylbenzene, 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene, isopropylnaphthalene, diisopropylnaphthalene, isopropylbiphenyl, diisopropylbiphenyl, etc.

The invention provides a method for preparing tert-butyl peroxide by using a heterogeneous catalyst. The method comprises the following steps: by using tert-butyl alcohol and oxydol as raw materials and an acidic ion exchange resin as a catalyst, reacting under reflux, cooling, standing, and separating to obtain an oil phase and a water phase; and washing the oil phase with alkali and water to obtain a di-tert-butyl peroxide solution (DTBP), wherein the oil phase water washing solution and water phase are the tert-butyl hydroperoxide water solution (TBHP). Since the ion exchange resin has the advantages of large pore structure, high acidity and high catalysis efficiency and the large pore structure can not be destroyed in reaction, the catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction product and can be recycled repeatedly, thereby having higher economic value. Besides, no sulfuric acid or any other strong acid is used in the production process, so the method has the advantages of low corrosion to equipment and no environment pollution, and has higher environmental benefit.

A continuous method of cumene oxidation in a gas-liquid system is provided, where the liquid phase is represented by cumene and its oxidation products and the gas phase is represented by air. The oxidation process can be carried out either in a reactor series or in a single reactor at least one of which is preferably equipped with at least two airlift-type trays. When specific CHP concentration is achieved, the oxidation products are discharged from the to reaction zone and treated in a mixing device with aqueous ammonia or water to remove organic acids such as formic acid, benzoic acid, etc. and to remove phenol, which is an inhibitor of oxidation reaction. The cumene oxidation product stream, free of organic acids and phenol is recycled to the same reactor in the case of single reactor, or is passed to the next reactor of the series in the case of reactor series. In all cases, the oxidation products treated with water or aqueous ammonia is first directed to a unit for separation of aqueous phase from organic products and then anhydrous organic product stream is forwarded to the next reactor of the series, or recycled to the single reactor for the continued cumene oxidation until the required CHP concentration is achieved. The airlift-type trays in at least one process reactor accelerate the cumene oxidation reaction therein while increasing the process selectivity and enabling the process to be conducted at lower temperature, improving safety thereof. Advantageously, lower quality cumene having impurities such as sulfur-containing trace elements, can be used in the inventive process while maintaining a high process selectivity.
