ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a method for isomerizing dimethylnaphthalene (DMN) in liquid phase under atmospheric pressure by using a catalyst comprising hydrogen-form mordenite which has a molar ratio of silica to alumina (SiO.sub.2 /Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 ratio) of at least 100 and is molded by incorporating alumina as the molding aid therein. According to the above method, the objective 2,6-DMN minimized in the contents of impurities can stably be produced in high selectivity and high yield under mild reaction conditions for a long period of time, while side reactions and deterioration of the catalyst are suppressed to a minimum.
