Abstract:
1. A hydrocarbon conversion process for the alkylation of aromatics comprising contacting a stream of aromatic compounds with an alkylating agent with a catalyst at hydrocarbon conversion conditions to generate at least one converted product, wherein the catalyst comprises a microporous crystalline MAPSO-64 material, where MAPSO-64 has a three-dimensional framework of EO 2 − , PO 2 + , [M 2+ O 2 ] 2− and SiO 2 tetrahedral units and an empirical composition in the as synthesized and anhydrous basis expressed by an empirical formula of: where M is at least one cation of valence 2+ selected from the group consisting of alkaline earth and transition metals, “m” is the mole ratio of M to E and varies from 0.01 to about 1.5, R is an organoammonium cation selected from the group of ethyltrimethylammonium (ETMA + ), choline, diethyldimethylammonium (DEDMA + ), propyltrimethylammonium (PTMA + ), tetramethylammoniun (TMA + ), tetraethylammonium (TEA + ), dipropyldimethylammonium (DPDMA + ), tetrapropylammonium (TPA + ) and mixtures thereof, “r” is the mole ratio of R to E and has a value of about 0.1 to about 2.0, E is a trivalent element selected from the group consisting of aluminum, gallium, iron, boron and mixtures thereof, “x” is the mole ratio of P to E and varies from 0.5 to about 2.5, “y” is the mole ratio of Si to E and varies from 0.01 to about 1.0 and “z” is the mole ratio of O to E and has a value determined by the equation: and is characterized in that it has the x-ray diffraction pattern having at least the d-spacings and intensities set forth in Table A:
