ABSTRACT:
A process for producing a monoalkenyl aromatic hydrocarbon which comprises alkenylating a side chain of an aromatic hydrocarbon compound having at least one hydrogen atom at the .alpha.-position of a side chain (such as o-xylene) with a conjugated diene having 4 or 5 carbon atoms in the presence of a catalyst slurry prepared by adding an aromatic hydrocarbon compound to a catalyst comprising a alkali metal and an alkali metal compound. In the aforementioned process, it is particularly effective that the catalyst slurry is prepared by adding the aromatic hydrocarbon compound after the aromatic hydrocarbon compound has been deoxygenated and dehydrated by distillation, and the catalyst slurry thus prepared is supplied to the reaction system. According to the aforementioned process, an industrially useful monoalkenyl aromatic hydrocarbon compound, such as a monoalkenylbenzene, can be produced at a high selectivity, in a high yield, and with enhanced safety and stability for a long time.
