Process for selectively producing acetic acid from a gaseous feed of ethane, ethylene or their mixtures and also oxygen at elevated temperature comprises contacting the feed with a catalyst containing Mo, Pd, Re, X and Y in atomic ratios a:b:c:d:e in combination with oxygen : MoaPdbRecXdYe (where, X = Cr, Mn, Nb, B, Ta, Ti, V and/or W; Y = Bi, Ce, Co, Cu, Te, Fe, Li, K, Na, Rb, Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ni, P, Pb, Sb, Si, Sn, Tl or U; a = 1; b > 0; c > 0; d = 0.05-2; and e = 0-3. Also claimed is the catalyst. |
