CATALYST FOR CARBOXYLIC ANHYDRIDE PRODUCTION

A vanadium, phosphorus oxygen containing catalyst composition capable of partially oxidizing hydrocarbons (e.g., n-butane) to form a carboxylic anhydride (e.g., maleic anhydride), a process for preparing this catalyst, and a process for using this catalyst to form such anhydrides is disclosed. The c...

Summary:A vanadium, phosphorus oxygen containing catalyst composition capable of partially oxidizing hydrocarbons (e.g., n-butane) to form a carboxylic anhydride (e.g., maleic anhydride), a process for preparing this catalyst, and a process for using this catalyst to form such anhydrides is disclosed. The catalyst composition is prepared by an organic heterogeneous technique followed by a water treatment step and activation.
