Abstract
Abstract A catalyst comprising a solid oxide complex of the formula wherein A is Fe, Zn, ir, Ru, Nb, Cr, Mn and/or Pt; a is 0.001 to 10; and x is greater than zero but less than a number sufficient to satisfy the valence requirements of the other elements present when in a fully oxidized state. Such catalysts are used in the production of alcohols from olefins, carbon monoxide and hydrogen, in a single step reaction.

Claim 5
Dependent Claim
67 words
A continuous, vapour phase process for directly converting a mono-olefin having no more than 18 carbon atoms to an alcohol comprising contacting said olefin together with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the vapour phase at a temperature of at least 100°C and a pressure of at least 100 psig (7.0 kg/cm 2 ) with a solid oxide complex as claimed in any of claims 1 to 3.

Claim 7
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process as claimed in claim 5 characterised in that the oxide complex is supported on a catalyst support.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
32 words
A process as claimed in claim 5 characterised in that the amount of rhodium on said catalyst support is 0.1 to 40 wt%, preferably 2 to 8 wt% measured as rhodium metal.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process as claimed in any of claims 4 to 7 characterised in that a is 0.6 to 2.0.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
