“…The pronounced safety and environmental issues, however, have drawn increasing concerns, like potential risks of HF leakage, serious equipment corrosion, and large amount of spent H 2 SO 4. 4 These disadvantages of conventional catalysts motivate researchers to develop novel candidates for C4 alkylation, such as solid acids and ionic liquids 5–9 . Although solid acids present a good initial activity and selectivity, the rapid deactivation is the inherent drawback to limit the large‐scale industrial application 10–12 .…”

To deeply understand the role of surfactants on the acid/C4 hydrocarbon miscibility, the catalytic activity and molecular‐level interfacial properties of long‐alkyl‐chain cationic surfactants (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, CATB and dihexadecyldimethylammoniumchloride, DDAB) and anionic one (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, SDBS) were studied as additives for H2SO4 alkylation using experiments and molecular dynamics simulations. Surfactant additives are found to efficiently decrease by‐products and promote higher selectivity of trimethylpentanes (TMPs) and higher research octane number (RON), which is attributed to the improvement of acid/hydrocarbons interface, including better interfacial dispersion, higher I/O ratio, and lower interfacial tension. Surfactant additives show an interfacial intensification, quite different from intrinsic reaction intensification by low temperature. Combination of SDBS additive and lower temperature contributes to significantly higher TMP selectivity and higher RON up to 84.20 wt% and 99.07 at 269.2 K from 60.21 wt% and 94.34 at 281.2 K, respectively. The information provides good reference for the industrial H2SO4 alkylation.

“…Simultaneously, solid acids and ionic liquids (ILs) are considered as novel catalyst candidates. The current alkylation still strongly relies on the H 2 SO 4 as catalyst, 2–6 because of the potential leakage risks of HF, rapid deactivation of solid acids, and the high operating cost and difficult disposal of spent ILs 7–9 . However, the H 2 SO 4 catalyst also has several fatal drawbacks, including serious equipment corrosion, huge spent acid, and secondary pollution caused by disposal of spent acid.…”

To predict and rationally design high-efficiency ionic liquids (ILs) additives for H 2 SO 4catalyzed alkylation, the quantitative structure-activity relationship between 11,000 ILs and interfacial properties of H 2 SO 4 alkylation was established by combination of molecular dynamics simulation, semi-empirical density function theory, and machine learning. The results indicate that ILs additives with longer alkyl chain can significantly broaden interfacial thickness and decrease interfacial tension, in which the cation-and anion-based descriptors play a synergistic prominent role. Based on the intensified interfacial properties, series of novel ILs additives with different alkyl chain length in both cations and anions are prepared, which present the ability to efficiently promote catalytic performance of H 2 SO 4 at trace addition amount and increase research octane number (RON) of alkylate up to 98.08 from 95.87 in pure H 2 SO 4 system. This work provides a strategy for prediction and rational design of high-efficiency additives to enhance the liquid-liquid interfacial properties.
