1. The catalytic properties of four rhenium sulfide-alumina catalysts have been investigated, with rhenium contents of 1, 5,10, and 15%, for the conversion of cyclohexane at 500° and 5 atm hydrogen pressure in a flow-system. 2. All the catalysts investigated produce dehydrogenation of cyclohexane into benzene and its isomerization into methylcyclopentane. The extent of these reactions depends on the rhenium content in the catalysts. 3. A method has been worked out for determining rhenium in the catalyzates investigated, using the photometric method. 1962 Consultants Bureau.
