Abstract
The alkylation of aromatic compound with acyclic mono-olefin is effected at low aromatic compound to mono-olefin ratios with reduced co-production of heavies. In the processes a small crystal, acidic FAU molecular sieve is used as a catalyst under alkylation conditions. This invention also relates to catalysts containing small crystal, acidic FAU molecular sieve and at least one other acidic catalytic component.
Claims6
A catalyst comprising a catalytically effective amount of small crystal, acidic FAU molecular sieve having a major crystal dimension of less than about 500 nanometers and a catalytically effective amount of solid acid catalytic component other than FAU molecular sieve.
