Producing a catalyst comprising a support material and an oxidic composition containing at least one alkali metal and tungsten, comprises mixing a support material with an oxidic tungsten compound and at least one separate alkali metal compound to obtain a catalyst composition, and molding the obtained catalyst composition. Independent claims are included for: (1) a catalyst comprising the support material and the oxidic composition containing the alkali metal and the tungsten, where the catalyst is produced from particles of the support material having a particle size of less than 1000 mu m; and (2) preparing alkyl mercaptans by reacting alkanols with hydrogen sulfide in the presence of a catalyst. |
