The /sup 14/C distribution in toluene from the aromatization of n-(1 - /sup 14/C-) and n-(4 - /sup 14/C-) heptane over both Pt - Sn- and Pt - Re - Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/ catalysts was that expected for a direct 1, 6-ring closure. The results using the bimetallic catalysts were in excellent agreement with results previously reported for a metal oxide catalyst (chromia) and a metal catalyst (Pt) suggesting that dehydrocyclization follows a similar mechanism over all three catalyst systems.
