Abstract: A process for the selective oxidation of non-cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbons (UHC) other than isobutene, especially non-cyclic poly-unsaturated alkenes, to give oxygen-containing organic compounds. The process comprises reacting the UHC, or a gas mixture containing UHC, at 150-600 (preferably 180-450) deg C with an optionally supported catalyst material based on a silver- vanadium mixed oxide of formula AgxMyVOz (I), in which x = 0.001-3; M = another element, preferably from main groups 1-6 or sub-Groups 1-3 and 5-8; y = 0-0.5; z = the number required for charge neutrality between cations and oxygen anions. Preferably x = 0.001-1, with y and z as above. Preferred (I) is a beta - or delta -silver-vanadium bronze. The catalyst may be used as an unsupported bulk material, or supported on clay, pillared clay, zeolites, aluminium phosphate, silicon carbide, silicon nitride, boron nitride, carbon, or oxides of titanium, zirconium, zinc, thorium, magnesium, calcium, barium or silicon. The process comprises (a) at least partial reduction of (I) by contact with the UHC or an oxygen-free gas mixture containing UHC, and (b) re-oxidation of the reduced catalyst with gas containing molecular oxygen or another oxygen- containing oxidising agent. Stage (a) is preferably carried out with a gas containing the UHC and a sub-stoichiometric amount of O2 (especially using air) or other oxidising agent as above, preferably dinitrogen oxide.
