Abstract

The use of relatively stable iron carbonyl complexes e.g. Bis(dicarbonylcyclopentadienyliron), and lower melting cobalt carbonyl complexes, facilitates production of mixed metal catalysts for conversion of CO/H.sub.2 to alpha-olefins. The decomposition of these materials can be achieved in a controlled manner resulting in an excellent alpha-olefins synthesis catalyst in Fischer-Tropsch processes.
