Abstract

A process for producing methylnaphthalenes is disclosed, comprising subjecting a fraction containing at least 50% by volume of components within the boiling range of 195.degree.-215.degree. C., which is obtained by distilling a raffinate resulting from the recovery of normal paraffins from a hydrodesulfurized kerosene fraction, to reforming reaction and then recovering methylnaphthalenes from the product oil.
