AMS-1B crystalline borosilicate molecular sieve-based catalyst compositions and process for xylene methylation

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6420814

A process is described for making pseudocumene comprising methylating a xylene in the presence of a catalyst composition comprising a HAMS-1B crystalline borosilicate molecular sieve incorporated into an inorganic matrix. The composition is impregnated by a magnesium compound and subsequently heated to substantially convert the compound to the oxide form.
