Abstract
Process for the carbonylation of dimethyl ether with carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalyst to produce methyl acetate reaction product. The carbonylation process is conducted in the presence of hydrogen at a molar ratio of hydrogen to carbon monoxide of greater than 1 and the catalyst is a mordenite zeolite prepared from a synthesis mixture comprising at least one organic structure directing agent.
