Abstract: The recent progress of the catalysts of Fries rearrangement reaction is reviewed. The characteristic properties of methane sulfonic acid catalysts，metallic-OTf catalysts，heteropoly acid catalysts，zeolite catalysts and ionic liquid catalysts are summarized. The new catalysts are superior to the traditional ones in several aspects：less consumption，easier operation，shorter reaction time，higher catalytic activity，better catalytic selectivity，reusability and less pollution to the environment. Finally the prospects of the research and application of the novel catalysts of Fries rearrangement reaction are presented.
