A modified zeolite catalyst composition and process for using the catalyst composition to alkylate toluene (or derivative thereof) with methanol to form e.g. styrene and ethylbenzene (or derivatives thereof) is disclosed. The catalyst composition is exemplified by a type X- or Y-zeolite modified with (1) at least one alkali metal selected from Cs, K, and Rb; (2) at least one metal selected from Li, Ce, Cr, and Ag; and (3) boron and/or phosphorus. |
