ABSTRACT:
A process for the selective alkylation of a monoalkyl benzene in which the alkyl substituent is either methyl or ethyl, to yield a dialkylbenzene product in which the para isomer of the disubstituted product is present in a concentration greater than in a thermodynamic equilibrium is provided. The method essentially comprises passing the monoalkyl benzene and an alkylating agent capable of methylation or ethylation through a reaction zone containing a crystalline silica polymorph silicalite catalyst. Water, in the form of steam, can be co-fed as an option.
