摘要

Improved process for the manufacture of detergent alkylates, comprising: the continuous introduction of benzene into a reaction zone which constitutes the first of at least three of said zones in successive mutual communication, and in which the reactant contents of the individual zones are stirred and maintained at temperatures between 15.5º C and 65.5º C; the continuous introduction of a C10-C16 olefin and an effective amount of alkylation catalyst to each of the three reaction zones so that the aggregate amount of olefin thus introduced provides a general external molar ratio of benzene to olefin of about 3-12. ; the continuous removal of the effluent from the reaction of the last of said zones with an average velocity in accordance with the average residence time of the reactants in each of the zones of about 3 to about 30 minutes; and the recovery of the detergent alkylate found in the fraction predominantly composed of a mixture of C10-C16 and monosubstituted benzenes of said effluent.
