The isopropylation of naphthalene (NP) with propene over H-Mordenite (MOR) was studied under a wide range of reaction parameters: temperature, propene pressure, period, and NP/MOR ratio. Selective formation of 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene (2,6-DIPN) was observed at reaction conditions, such as at low reaction temperature, under high propene pressure, and/or with high NP/MOR ratio. However, the decrease in the selectivities for 2,6-DIPN was observed at reaction conditions such as at high temperature, under low propene pressure, and/or with low NP/MOR ratio. The selectivities for 2,6-DIPN in the encapsulated products were remained high and constant under all reaction conditions. These results indicate that the selective formation of 2,6-DIPN occurs through the least bulky transition state due to the exclusion of the bulky isomers by the MOR channels. The decrease in the selectivities for 2,6-DIPN are due to the isomerization of 2,6-DIPN to 2,7-DIPN at the external acid sites, directing towards thermodynamic equilibrium of DIPN isomers.

The isopropylation of naphthalene with isopropyl alcohol was studied over composites of MOR/SBA-15 in a high-pressure, fixed-bed reactor. The MOR catalyst showed a high 2,6-/2,7-diisopropyl naphthalene (DIPN) ratio of 1.75, but a low naphthalene conversion (54%) and fast deactivation of the catalyst. The composites of MOR/SBA-15 were prepared by a hydrothermal recrystallization process to obtain hierarchical micro/mesopores. During the process, MOR recrystallized in the mesopores of SBA-15, the structure of which was stabilized by carbon coating formed on the pore walls as a template. The best prepared MOR/SBA-15 catalyst achieved a high conversion of 85%, high stability, and less coking, while maintaining the high 2,6-/2,7-DIPN ratio (≈1.8). The modified micro/mesopore structure allowed facile diffusion of bulky molecules to and from active catalytic sites located in the small MOR pores as a result of the connection between the two types of pores in the MOR/SBA-15 composite. Networking of big and small: To improve naphthalene conversion in isopropylation of naphthalene, a hierarchical meso/micropore structure of zeolite composites is achieved by combining micropores of MOR with mesopores of SBA-15. In the hydrothermal recrystallization process, MOR recrystallizes in the mesopores of SBA-15 stabilized by carbon coating formed on the pore walls as a template.

Regioselective alkylation of naphthalene compounds with alcohols smoothly proceeded in the presence of zeolite catalysts under microwave irradiation. A H-mordenite (H-M) zeolite catalyst (SiO2/Al2O3 ratio = 240) showed the highest efficiency. In the microwave reactions, high reaction rates and high selectivities for 2,6-dialkylnaphthalenes were achieved. In the best case for the reaction of 2-isopropylnaphthalene with isopropyl alcohol, the conversion and the selectivity were 43.5% and 66.4%, respectively. In di-tert-butylation of naphthalene with tert-butyl alcohol, the conversion and the selectivity reached 86.5% and 70.4%, respectively. The conversions and the selectivities were generally higher than those obtained by conventional oil bath heating.

The isopropylation of naphthalene (NP) over USY zeolite (FAU06, SiO2/Al2O3 = 6) gave all eight possible diisopropylnaphthalene (DIPN) isomers: β,β- (2,6- and 2,7-), α,β- (1,3-, 1,6-, and 1,7-), and α,α- (1,4- and 1,5-). Th
