ABSTRACT:
A catalyst useful for dehydrating an alkanolamine to form an alkylenimine is prepared by providing an aqueous or hydrofluoric acid solution of a tantalum or niobium compound, neutralizing this solution with ammonium hydroxide to precipitate the metal hydroxide, washing the precipitated metal hydroxide with water and subsequently dissolving it in an aqueous solution of a lower carboxylic acid, e.g. oxalic acid, applying the acid solution to a catalyst support to impregnate it with the metal hydroxide and finally drying and calcining the impregnated support to form the desired metal oxide catalyst. An alkaline earth metal oxide is optionally employed by impregnating the support with an aqueous solution of the alkaline earth metal hydroxide, preferably prior to the application of the catalyst.
