A description follows of a catalytic composition comprising a mixture of Y zeolite and pillared clay and a process which uses this catalytic composition for the alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons by means of long-chain linear olefins. The aromatic alkyl compounds thus obtained are useful for the preparation of biodegradable synthetic detergents.

Catalytic composition for the preparation of long-chain alkylaromatic compounds

A catalyst is disclosed which comprises a clay belonging to the family of smectites, containing multi-metal pillars, together with a process which uses such a catalyst for the alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons by means of long chain linear olefins. The resulting alkyl-aromatic compounds are useful for preparing biodegradable synthetic detergents.
