Claims
- 1. An aromatic alkylation process comprising contacting at aromatic alkylation conditions a catalyst composition comprising a heteropoly compound selected from the group consisting of heteropoly salts and heteropolyacid salts deposited in the interior of a porous support selected from the group consisting of silica, titania, and zirconia, wherein said salt of said heteropoly salt and said heteropolyacid salt is selected from the group consisting of ammonium, cesium, potassium, and rubidium salts and mixtures thereof, and wherein said heteropoly salt and said heteropolyacid salt are formed with a heteropolyacid selected from the group consisting of 12-tungstophosphoric, 12-tungstosilicic, 12-molybdophosphoric, and 12-molybdosilicic acid with a feed comprising an aromatic compound selected from the group consisting of benzene, toluene, and phenol with an olefin selected from the group consisting of C.sub.2 to olefins having a molecular weight up to 5000 inclusive.
- 2. A process according to claim 1 wherein said heteropoly salts and said heteropolyacid salts are deposited on the interior of a support in an egg white configuration.
