A process for the simultaneous trimerization and tetramerization of olefinic monomers , wherein the process comprises contacting at least one olefinic monomer with catalyst system comprising : a) a source of chromium, molybdenum or tungsten; b) a ligand having the general formula (I) ; (R<1>)2P-X-P (R<1>)m(R<2>)n wherein : X is a bridging group of the formula -N(R<3>)-, wherein R<3> is selected from hydrogen, a hydrocarbyl group, a substituted hydrocarbyl group, a heterohydrocarbyl group, a substituted heterohydrocarbyl group, a silyl group or derivative thereof; the R<1> groups are independently selected from an optionally substituted aromatic group bearing a polar substituent on at least one of the ortho-positions; and the R<2> groups are independently selected from hydrocarbyl, substituted hydrocarbyl, heterohydrocarbyl and substituted heterohydrocarbyl groups and c) a cocatalyst. The present invention further relates to a process for the simultaneous trimerization and tetramerization of ethylene to 1-hexene and 1-octene.

This invention relates to the use of olefin mixtures containing 1-hexene / 1-decene / 1-dodecene and, additionally, 1-octene or 1-decene to produce high viscosity polyalphaolefins (PAOs) having a viscosity of from about 40 cSt to about 100 cSt at 100° C. (ASTM D-445) and a number average molecular weight of between about 1200 to about 4000, particularly useful as lubricant base stocks.

The present invention provides a method of producing oligomers of olefins, comprising reacting olefins with a catalyst under oligomerization conditions. The catalyst can be the product of the combination of a chromium compound and a heteroaryl-amine compound. In particular embodiments, the catalyst compound can be used to trimerize or tetramerize ethylene to 1-hexene, 1-octene, or mixtures of 1-hexene and 1-octene.

The present invention relates to a catalyst composition for ethylene oligomerization and the use thereof. Such catalyst composition includes chromium compound, ligand containing P and N, activator and accelerator; wherein the chromium compound is selected from the group consisting of acetyl acetone chromium, THF-chromium chloride and Cr(2-ethylhecanoate)3; general formula of the ligand containing P and N is shown as:in which R1, R2, R3 and R4 are phenyl, benzyl, or naphthyl. R5 is isopropyl, butyl, cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or fluorenyl; the activatior is methyl aluminoxane, ethyl aluminoxane, propyl aluminoxane and / or butyl aluminoxane; the accelerator is selected from the group consisting of 1,1,2,2,-tetrachloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrabromoethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane, and compounds having a formula of X1R6X2, in which X1 and X2 are F, Cl, Br, I or alkoxyl, R6 is alkylene or arylene group; the molar ratio of chromium compound, ligand containing P and N, activator and accelerator is 1:0.5˜10:50˜3000:0.5˜10. After mixing the four components mentioned previously under nitrogen atmosphere for 10 minutes, they are incorporated to the reactor, or these four components are incorporated directly into the reactor. Then ethylene is introduced for oligomerization. Such catalyst can be used in producing 1-octene through ethylene oligomerization. It is advantageous in high catalysing activity, high 1-octene selectivity, etc. The catalytic activity is more than 1.0×106 g product·ma−1 Cr·h−1, the fraction of C8 linear α-olefin is more than 70% by mass.

Disclosed herein is a method of preparing 1-octene at high activity and high selectivity while stably maintaining reaction activity by tetramerizing ethylene using a chromium-based catalyst system comprising a transition metal or a transition metal precursor, a cocatalyst, and a P—C—C—P backbone structure ligand represented by (R1)(R2)P—(R5)CHCH(R6)—P(R3)(R4).
