Kinetics and isotope labeling experiments were used to investigate the reaction pathways ofn-butane on H-mordenite and Pt/H-mordenite at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of 543–583 K. Butenes, either formed on the catalyst or present in the feed, controlled the relative rates of mono- and bimolecular reaction pathways. The true activation energy for isobutane formation was found to be 120–134 kJ/mol. The reaction order for isobutane formation with respect ton-butene on Pt/H-mordenite was 1.0–1.2, consistent with a predominately monomolecular route of formation. An order close to 2 for disproportionation products indicated a bimolecular route of formation. An increase of the butene concentration from less than 20 ppm to about 120 ppm greatly increased the rate of bimolecular skeletal isomerization, as determined from conversion of 1,4-13C2-n-butane. The findings explain how reaction conditions affect product selectivity and clarify the controversy around butane isomerization on solid acids.
