There is disclosed a process for the isomerization of a branched diene which comprises passing the branched diene in the vapor phase over a boron phosphate catalyst, the improvement comprising a catalyst which has an initial molar ratio of P/B of less than 1.0 but more than 0.6.
Conjugated. The double bond units occur consecutively giving a continuous &#960 system since the adjacent p orbitals can all overlap with each other. The result is that conjugated diene reactivity differs to that of simple alkenes. This extra bonding interaction between the adjacent &#960 systems makes the conjugated dienes the most stable type of diene. Conjugated dienes are about 15kJ/mol or 3.6 kcal/mol more stable than simple alkenes.
