The review discusses chemical mechanisms of most important reactions that take place in the course of catalytic cracking of alkenes and alkanes over solid acidic catalysts. The main subject of the review is the mechanism of the principal cracking step, fission of C─C bonds in aliphatic hydrocarbons....
