Abstract
A process for preparing a catalyst that has improved activity and efficiency for conversion of hydrocarbons is disclosed. The catalyst is prepared by applying sulfito complexes have the emperical formula M.sub.6 (x) (SO.sub.3).sub.4 where M is H+ NA+, K+ or NH.sub.4 + and x is platinum, palladium or mixtures thereof. In addition, the compounds M.sub.2 (x) (SO.sub.3).sub.2 and M.sub.2 (x) (SO.sub.3).sub.2 also have utility in our process. The complex salt is impregnated onto a support and activated by calcination in air or heating in a reducing atmosphere.
