A VPO catalyst precursor having the formula (VO)HPO4aH2OMmPpOy wherein M is at least one promoter element selected from the group consisting of elements from Groups IA, IB, IIA, IIIA, IIIB, IVA, IVB, VA, VB, VIA, VIB, and VIIIA of the Periodic Table of the Elements, and mixtures thereof, a is a number of at least about 0.3, m is a number of from about 0 to about 0.3, p is a number of from about 0 to about 0.3, any y corresponds to the amount of oxygen necessary to satisfy the valence requirements of all elements present, is activated by heating the catalyst precursor in an atmosphere selected from the group consisting of air, steam, inert gas, and mixtures thereof to a temperature not to exceed about 300 DEG C., maintaining the catalyst precursor at this temperature and providing an atmosphere containing molecular oxygen, steam, and optionally an inert gas, increasing the temperature at a programmed rate of from about 0.5 DEG C./min to about 15 DEG C./min to a value effective to eliminate the water of hydration from the catalyst precursor, adjusting the temperature to a value greater than 350 DEG C., but less than 550 DEG C., and maintaining the adjusted temperature in a molecular oxygen/steam-containing atmosphere comprised of at least 1 vol % oxygen for a time effective to provide a vanadium oxidation state of from about +4.0 to about +4.5 and to complete transformation of the precursor to the active catalyst having the Formula (VO)2P2O7M2mP2pOy wherein M, m, p and y are defined above.
