Abstract

The invention relates to a process of activating a supported acid catalyst, and consists in the conversion of Lewis acid-type acid sites which are deposited on a solid substrate into activated acid sites in a non-oxydizing acid medium. The catalyst is exposed to a phase of activation in a medium containing a holohydric acid or a halohydric acid precursor, in the presence of at least one preferably parafinic hydrocarbon or hydrocarbon derivative, at a temperature greater than 20.degree. and preferably between 100.degree. C. and 250.degree. C., and at a pressure of between 10.sup.5 and 50,10.sup.6 Pa, for a length of time sufficient to ensure conversion into activated acid sites.
