Abstract

The selectivity of ring opening was investigated for the hydrocracking of acenaphthene under an initial hydrogen pressure of 6 MPa and in the temperature range from 390 to 450° C. Major products were classified into the following six components: tetrahydroacenaphthylene, hexahydroacenaphthylene, perhydroacenaphthylene, ring opening products (bicyclic compounds and monocyclic compounds), alkylation products ( ...
