Isoprene synthesis

13synthesis methods
Isoprene is obtained from propylene by the followin,g route:


In the first step, propylene is dimerized to 2-methyl-l-pentene by passage over a catalyst of tri-n-propylaluminium at about 200°C and 20 MPa (200 atmospheres). This product is then isomerized to 2-methyl-2-pentene by heating at 150-300°C in the presence of a silica-alumina catalyst. The final step in the process is the pyrolysis of the olefin to isoprene at 650-800°C in the presence of a free radical initiator such as hydrogen bromide. The isomerization step is necessary because pyrolysis of 2-methyl-l-pentene gives much poorer yields of isoprene than pyrolysis of 2-methyl-2-pentene.
