Abstract
Abstract A process is provided for conducting organic compound conversion over a catalyst comprising a zeolite composition prepared by a method which comprises compositing a specific zeolite material with alumina, impregnating the composite with an aqueous solution of an alkali metal fluoride under vacuum, contacting the impregnated composite with an ammonium salt solution and calcining the resulting material.
