ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a process for producing a nitrile which comprises subjecting an alkane to a gas-phase catalytic oxidation reaction with ammonia in the presence of a complex oxide solid catalyst composed of molybdenum, vanadium, tellurium and niobium.
According to the process of the present invention, it is possible to produce the objective nitrile at a high selectivity without using a halide, water, etc., moreover, at a relatively low temperature of about 350.degree. to 480.degree. C., particularly about 400.degree. to 450.degree. C.
