Abstract

Methanethiol is produced from a gaseous feed comprising a mixture of H2 S and CO by contacting said feed, at a temperature of at least about 225° C., with a catalyst comprising an oxide of a metal selected from the group consisting of V, Nb, and Ta and mixtures thereof, preferably V, supported on titania and wherein at least a portion, and preferably at least about 25 wt. %, of said supported oxide is in a non-crystalline form.
