Procedure

The Pentasil ZSM-5 is a catalyst used for converting methanol to gasoline, processing C-8 streams, selectively isomerizing m-cresol to p-cresol, suppressing the formation of diphenylalanine in the production of aniline, and producing pyridine and β-picoline from acetaldehyde, formaldehyde and ammonia.
