	abstract = {<p>The hierarchical K/LTL zeolites prepared by post-synthesis modification with aqueous 1.5 M KOH solution by varying alkali volume to K/LTL zeolite (10-70 ml/g) ratios, were examined in Knoevenagel condensation. The physico-chemical properties of the catalysts were thoroughly evaluated by PXRD, ICP, CO2-TPD, XPS, N-2 adsorption/desorption and Si-29 and Al-22 MAS-NMR. Among all the samples, hierarchical K/LTL prepared by treating K/LTL with 50 ml aqueous 1.5 M KOH solution per gram of K/LTL displayed about 1.5 fold higher catalytic activity as compared to parent K/LTL, presumably because of combined effect of enhanced basicity and molecular diffusion through pore channels.
