Abstract

InCl3 and GaCl3 supported on montmorillonite-K10 or on high silica mesoporous MCM-41 show very high activity in the benzylation of benzene by benzyl chloride (at 80°C) with little or no effect in the presence of moisture in the catalyst or in the reaction mixture on their benzylation activity; the supported InCl3 catalyst shows superior performance in the benzylation reaction in regard to both the activity and moisture insensitivity.
