Abstract

Abstract A process for the preparation of unsaturated aliphatic nitriles by the oxidation of olefins in the presence of ammonia, consists in reacting the hydrocarbon or hydrocarbons with oxygen and ammonia in the presence of a catalyst system containing the elements phosphorus, vanadium and molybdenum in the form of a phosphovanadomolyboic heteropolyanion; a part or the whole of said elements may be combined with tellurium or antimony.
