[0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing xylene from toluene. Background technique
[0002] Xylene, also known as mixed xylene, is a mixture of p-xylene, o-xylene, m-xylene and ethylbenzene. The mixture is mainly used as a solvent for paint coatings and as an additive for aviation gasoline. When used as a chemical raw material, each isomer can be separated in advance. Among them, p-xylene is an important chemical raw material, the most important application (accounting for more than 80%) is used to produce PTA (terephthalic acid) and DMT (dimethyl terephthalate), and these two substances are It is mainly used in the synthesis of PET (polyester); p-xylene is also a commonly used organic solvent and can also be used in the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates.
[0003] The common method for industrial production of xylene is toluene selective disproportionation catalytic technology. Exxon Mobil proposed the MSTDP and MTPX toluene ...
