A process for producing 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene from a hydrocarbon feedstock that contains at least one component selected from the group consisting of dialkylnaphthalene isomers, monoalkylnaphthalene isomers, polyalkylnaphthalenes, and naphthalene, is provided that includes the following steps:

Process for preparing 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene

The present invention relates to a method of preparing 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene from a feed stream that contains hydrocarbons which contain dimethylnaphthalene isomers. The method includes the following steps:

Isomerization of dimethylnaphthalene to produce 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene

The present invention relates to a process of preparing dialkylnaphthylenes and polyalkylenenaphthyleneates.

A process is provided for producing pyridine and/or alkylpyridine compounds comprising reacting a feedstream of ammonia and at least one C.sub.1-5 carbonyl reactant under conversion conditions and in the presence of a phosphorus-modified molecular sieve containing catalyst to produce a product stream having a pyridine and/or a pyridine based compound selected from alkylpyridines or polyalkylpyridines. The catalyst has improved attrition resistance without affecting catalyst activity or selectivity.
