Abstract
Kinetic parameters such as the activation energy (Ea) and Arrhenius frequency factor (A) for the N-methylation of aniline using methanol over Zn-Co ferrites have been calculated. The Ea value is found to be lower than the existing best alkylating systems such as γ-alumina and magnesium oxide.
