ALKYLATION OF BENZENE TO FORM LINEAR ALKYLBENZENES USING FLUORINE-CONTAINING MORDENITES

Title:

ALKYLATION OF BENZENE TO FORM LINEAR ALKYLBENZENES USING FLUORINE-CONTAINING MORDENITES

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO2000023404

Kind Code:

A9

Abstract:

This invention is directed to a fluorine-containing mordenite catalyst and use thereof in the manufacture of linear alkylbenzene (LAB) by alkylation of benzene with a paraffin. The paraffin may have from about 10 to 14 carbons. The fluorine-containing mordenite is prepared typically by treatment with an aqueous hydrogen fluoride solution. The benzene alkylation may be conducted using reactive distillation. This invention is also directed to a process for production of LAB having a high 2-phenyl isomer content by combining LAB product from the fluorine-containing mordenite product from a conventional LAB alkylation catalyst such as hydrogen fluoride.
