Abstract

A method for the oxidative conversion of feed organic compounds to product organic compounds, particularly, the conversion of methane to higher hydrocarbons and the conversion of saturated C.sub.2 to C.sub.7 hydrocarbons to less saturated hydrocarbons, in which the feed compounds are contacted with a free oxygen-containing gas, water and a contact material, comprising at least one Group IIA metal or lanthanum and oxygen; at least two Group IIA metals, Lanthanum Series metals, zinc, or titanium and oxygen; at least one Group IA metal, at least one Group IIA metal, Lanthanum Series metals, zinc or titanium and oxygen; at least one Group IA metal or Group IIA metal, phosphorous and oxygen; cobalt, at least one of zirconium, zinc, nickel, indium, lead or bismuth, phosphorous, at least one Group IA metal and oxygen; or cobalt, at least one Group IA metal, silicon and oxygen.
