Abstract

The side-chain alkylation of toluene to form ethylbenzene or styrene has been investigated using a conventional flow reactor at temperatures near 475°C. Cs2O (10–20 wt. %)-activated carbon catalyst prepared by an impregnation method showed an excellent activity and selectivity. The calcination temperature of the catalyst and the addition of CO2 or H2O into the reactant mixture affected the catalyst activity in a striking manner.
