Conversion of ortho- and para-toluidine to industrially important meta
isomer has been studied over metallosilicates of ZSM-5 type. The effe
ct of reaction temperature, WHSV on the catalytic performance is discu
ssed. A good correlation exists between the acidity of the metallosili
cates and their conversion activity.
