ABSTRACT:
A catalyst composition is prepared by mixing at least an aluminum halide (preferably AlCl.sub.3), at least one copper(II) salt (preferably CuCl.sub.2), calcium aluminate and at least one alcohol (preferably ethanol), shaping the mixture, and drying the shaped particles. The thus-obtained catalyst composition is employed in the isomerization of alkanes and/or cycloalkanes.
