Our experiments lead to the following conclusions: (1) Zeolite acidity plays an important role in the formation of aromatics from synthesis gas by bifunctional catalysts as strikingly evidenced in a comparison of the product slates from ZSM-5 (11.1% Fe) and Silicalite (13.6% Fe). (2) The transition metal component impregnated into the zeolite plays an important role in selectivity as seen from the liquid phase products from ZSM-5 (11.1% Fe) and ZSM-5 (5.6% Fe, 4.5% Co). In this context, zeolites containing bimetallic clusters are of special interest. (3) Silicalite impregnated with Fe and promoted with K has an exceptionally high selectivity for the production of C/sub 2/-C/sub 4/ olefins from synthesis gas.
