Abstract
Abstract Process for the alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons by contacting same with an olefin alkylating agent in a reaction zone maintained under conditions such that said alkylation is accomplished in the vapor phase and in the presence of a catalyst comprising a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite, said zeolite having a silica to alumina ratio of at least about 12 and a constraint index, as hereinafter defined, of from 1 to 12, said catalyst having been modified by the addition thereto of phosphorus in an amount of at least about 0.5 percent by weight.
