Abstract
Novel, high specific surface area molybdenum oxycarbide catalysts are disclosed. They are prepared by the vapor condensation of molybdenum hexacarbonyl and catalyze the reaction of hydrogen and carbon monoxide to form hydrocarbons. Carburization of the molybdenum oxycarbides increases their activity in the carbon monoxide-hydrogen reaction.
