摘要

Methods for the synthesis of hydrocarbons and alcohols by contacting carbon monoxide and hydrogen over novel catalyst compositions are disclosed. The catalyst compostions are intermetallic compounds having a first and second phase, said first phase being selected from: (1) a single metal selected from V and Nb, (2) a single phase binary alloy selected from TiCo, TiCr, TiCu and TiMn and the binary Laves phase compounds TiCr2, ZrNi2, ZrMo2, ZrFe2, ZrCo2, ZrMn2, TiCo2, ZrCu2 and ZrCr2, and (3) single phase ternary or quaternary alloys selected from (a) TiFexMyNz where M and N are any metal that can substitute for Fe such that the resulting alloy is a single phase alloy, but not Ni or Ru, and where X is a number less than 1.0, y and z are each numbers less than 1.0 or either, but not both, may be 0, and x and y and z is approximately 1.0; (b) TiAXMYNZ where A is Co, Cr, Mn or Cu, M and N are any metal that can substitute for Co, Cr, Mn or Cu such that the resulting alloy is a single phase alloy, and where x is a number less than 1.0, y and z are each numbers less than 1.0 or either, but not both, may be 0, and x and y and z is approximately 1.0; and (c) ternary or higher Laves phase compounds based on Ti and/or Zr, and said second phase is free titanium hydride or zirconium hydride.
