Abstract
Activity and selectivity of titanium pillared clay (Ti-PILC) are higher than those obtained with a zeolite (Y-82) in dehydration of 1-phenylethanol. Under hydrogen, 48% conversion and 98.4% selectivity are obtained on Ti-PILC as compared with 30% conversion and 81.4% selectivity on Y-82 zeolite in the same conditions. Physico-chemical characterizations (adsorption of nitrogen and TPD of ammonia) suggests that these results may be explained by a better accessibility of the strong acid sites of the Ti-PILC.
