Abstract

A process for isomerizing styrene or homologues to .beta.-phenylaldehydes, consisting of conducting the isomerization reaction in the presence of a catalyst constituted by synthetic zeolites containing titanium, of formula EQU xTiO.sub.2.(1-x)SiO.sub.2 where x lies between 0.0001 and 0.04, and optionally in the presence of one or more solvents, operating at a temperature of between 30.degree. and 100.degree. C.
