A process is described for the alkylation of aromatic compounds by the reaction of the aromatic compound of interest with isopropanol, alone or mixed with propylene, characterized in that the reaction is carried out in the presence of a zeolite-based catalyst composition, under mixed phase conditions. of gas-liquid or under completely liquid phase conditions, at a temperature and pressure such that the concentration of water in the liquid reaction phase is not more than 8,000 ppm, w / w, regardless of the total water content present in the reaction mixture. |
