(57) [Summary] [Objective] To provide a catalyst which can be prepared by a simple process, has a high catalytic activity, and can produce an aromatic hydrocarbon having a long catalyst life. Furthermore, a non-aromatic hydrocarbon to an aromatic compound using this catalyst is provided. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for efficiently producing a group hydrocarbon. A L-type zeolite containing a halogen-containing compound and carrying a platinum-containing compound, wherein the supported platinum has a peak intensity of 0.4 or less in the X-ray near absorption edge structure measurement, and A novel L-type zeolite in which the dealumination amount in the zeolite is 3% or less of the total aluminum amount, a catalyst for the production of aromatics containing this as a main component, and the efficiency of producing aromatic hydrocarbons from various hydrocarbons using this catalyst It is a good manufacturing method. |
