ABSTRACT:
Methods for the catalytic production of vinyl acetate monomer from ethane, ethylene or an ethane/ethylene mixture using a first catalyst containing MoVNbPd, MoVLaPdNbX (where X is Al, Ga, Ge or Si) or MoVNbX (where X is P, B, Hf, Te, As or mixtures thereof) in the first step of oxidation and using a conventional VAM catalyst for the second step. The method produces high yields to acetic acid and vinyl acetate without the coproduction of carbon monoxide. Further-more, the ethylene and acetic acid produced in the first step may be utilized in the second step for VAM production
