Abstract
A catalytic process is provided for converting a feed containing a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 monohydric alcohol by contact of said alcohol, under conversion conditions, with a catalyst comprising a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite having a crystal size of at least about 1 micron, a silica to alumina ratio of at least about 12 and a constraint index, as hereinafter defined, within the approximate range of 1 to 12. The zeolite contains a Group 2B and a Group 8 metal or metal compound plus magnesium, either per se or in compound form.

A crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite catalyst having a crystal size of at least about 1 micron, a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 12 and a constraint index of about 1 to about 12, said zeolite comprising a Group 2B component, a Group 8 component and magnesium that have been incorporated into said zeolite in that order.
A method for making a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite catalyst having a crystal size of at least about 1 micron, a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 12 and a constraint index of about 1 to about 12, the step of incorporating into said zeolite catalyst a member comprising a Group 2B component, a Group 8 component and magnesium, said member having been incorporated in the order stated.
