Abstract

A catalyst for the production of alkenylaromatics from alkylaromatics, wherein the catalyst is predominantly iron oxide, an alkali metal compound and less than about 100 ppm of a source for a noble metal, such as palladium, platinum, ruthenium, rhenium, osmium, rhodium or iridium. 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.
