A catalyst supported with noble metal(s) for the isomerization of alkylaromatics consists of (1) 0.1-0.4 wt % of Pt or (2) 0.1-0.4 wt % of Pt or 0.2-0.8 wt % of Pd, 0.01-0.20 wt % of Re and 0.05-0.50 wt % of Sn as active component, and 10-60 wt % of a zeolite with MOR structure, 0-15 wt % of ZSM-5 zeolite and 40-80 wt % of alumina as support.

Catalyst supported with noble metal(s) for the isomerization of

A catalyst for the preparation of benzene, toluene and xylene from C.sub.9.sup.+ heavy aromatics consists of zeolite ZSM-5 and .gamma.- or .eta.-Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 as carrier, Re, Sn and Pt or Pd supported on the carrier. Under the conditions of 350.degree.-450.degree. C., 0.5-3.5 MPa, a WHSV of 1-5 h.sup.-1 and a H.sub.2 /HC ratio (v/v) of 500-1200, the catalyst achieves high activity and stability as well as low hydrogen consumption.
