Friedel-Crafts Acylation of Aromatic Hydrocarbons Using Zeolites

Authors:

Abstract
A convenient heterogeneous catalytic methodology for Friedel-Crafts acylation of benzene and toluene using various aliphatic carboxylic anhydrides over zeolites at 250 °C is described. An interesting para selectivity is observed in the case of acylation of toluene over HZSM-5.
