Abstract
Production of cymenes and cumene through transalkylation of toluene wi th diisopropylbenzene has been studied over REY zeolite. Variation of different reaction parameters and their effects on the conversion of D IPB and selectivity to cymenes and cumene are described. Concentration of cymenes are more than cumene due to successive and simultaneous re actions.
