Role of Solid Acid Catalyst in Isopropylation Reaction
Abstract: Cumene synthesis was carried out by the reaction of benzene with isopropyl alcohol in the vapour phase over rare earth metal modified 13X zeolite. Zeolite modification was done by exchanging sodium ions of the zeolite with cerium ions to vary the acidity of the catalyst in the range of 0.25‑1.36 meq/g. The synthesis was carried out over a wide range of operating conditions. The synthesis conditions were optimized by studying …
