Oxidation and ammoxidation caytalysts are disclosed which have the empirical formula SbaVbTicOx, wherein a is at least 6, b is 1, and c is a number such that the ratio c/a is at least 0.5, and x is a number taken to satisfy the valence requirements of the Sb, V and Ti present in the catalyst. Such catalysts may be optionally supported on conventional supports, or may be unsupported. They can be made by drying a slurry of Sb, V and Ti compounds in the desired atomic ratio to form a catalyst precursor that is then calcined. Their use in oxidation and ammoxidation of olefines, e.g. production of acrylonitrile from propylene, is described. |
