Abstract

A catalyst for the production of alkenylaromatics from alkylaromatics, wherein the catalyst is predominantly iron oxide, an alkali metal compound and a small amount of a source for palladium or platinum. Additional components of the catalyst may include compounds based on cerium, molybdenum, tungsten and other such promoters. Also a process for the production of alkenylaromatics from alkylaromatics using this catalyst.
