Abstract: A phosphorus-containing molecular sieve has a phosphorus content of about 0.3-5 wt %, a pore volume of about 0.2-0.95 ml/g, and a ratio of B acid content to L acid content of about 2-10. The molecular sieve has a specific combination of characteristics, including a high ratio of B acid content to L acid content, thereby exhibiting higher hydrocracking activity and ring-opening selectivity when used in the preparation of a hydrocracking catalyst.

Abstract: It has been discovered that catalysts may be modified by depositing an agent derivative from an agent such as an organometallic compound upon them. Such a modification gives a catalyst useful in increased selectivity to para-substituted alkyl benzenes, such as para-xylene (PX), through reacting an aromatic compound such as toluene and/or benzene with a methylating agent from hydrogen and carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide and/or methanol. Using these selectivated catalysts, para-substituted alkyl benzenes can be recovered in a selectivity of 80% or greater, significantly better than the equilibrium concentration of 24%.
