Abstract

A new family of aluminosilicate zeolites designated UZM-44 has been synthesized. These zeolites are represented by the empirical formula.NanMmk+TtAl1-xExSiyOz where M represents a metal or metals from zine, Group 1, Group 2, Group 3 and or the lanthanide series of the periodic table, “m” is the mole ratio of M to (Al+E), T is the organic structure directing agent or agents, and E is a framework element such as gallium. UZM-44 may be used to catalyze a process for the transalkylation of a feedstream comprising one or more of C7, C9, C10 and C11+ aromatics to obtain a transalkylation product stream having an increased concentration of C8 aromatics relative to that of the feedstream.
