Catalysts useful for the oxidation and ammoxidation of olefins have the empirical formula: FsaSbbCUcTedWfMegOx Wherein Me is a member of the group consisting of V, B, P, Mg, Sn, Zn, Mn, and mixtures thereof wherein a is 5 to 10, b is 10 to 30,0 is 1 to 5, d is 0.5 to 5, e is 0.1 to 5c f is 0.01 to 5, g is 0 to 0.5, and x is a number taken to satisfy the valence requirements of the other elements present. Such catalysts are prepared by forming a mixture containing iron, antimony and copper components and a preformed tellurium-containing component selected from the group consisting of tellurium molybdate, tellurium tungstate and mixtures thereofs, a complementary metal- containing component and, optionally, a vanadium component, in amount sufficient to satisfy the elemental atomic ratio requirements, forming the mixture into dry particules, and calcining to from the catalyst. These catalysts are especially useful for the production of acrylonitrile from propylene, ammonia, and an oxygen-containing gas. |
