Abstract
The catalytic activity of mesoporous silica (FSM-16) for the isomerization of 1-butene was remarkably enhanced by modification with iron (II) sulphate . The enhancement of the activity of FSM-16 was attributed to the transform ation of the silanol groups on FSM-16 into Bronsted acid sites by the induc tive effect of FeSO4 and/or sulphate species formed by the decomposition of FeSO4.
