Zeolite catalysed synthesis of 5-ethyl-2-methylpyridine under high pressure

Simple and selective single-step synthesis of 5-ethyl-2-methylpyridine (EMP) under high pressure (autogeneous pressure) conditions is achieved with high conversion and high selectivity over zeolites. The catalyst can be reused many times without significant loss of activity.
