Rapid synthesis of branched alkanes in the gasoline range from propene was conducted using a series reactor. Alkenes in the gasoline range p roduced on the MFI type H-Fe-silicate packed in the first-stage reacto r were successively hydrogenated on various Pt-modified catalysts pack ed in the second-stage reactor. Even at high space velocity, the selec tivity to branched alkanes including cycloalkanes in the gasoline rang e was greatly increased by adopting the Pt-modified mesoporous silicat e, compared with that of Pt-modified MFI type non-metal silicate and/o r silica gel having a distribution of pores in the mesoporous range. T he mesoporous silicate was synthesized from kanemite by repeated ion-e xchange treatment with an aqueous solution of hexadecyltrimethylammoni um chloride.
