Abstract
A solid composition of matter comprising: (1) cobalt, (2) at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Group IA metals, (3) silicon and (4) oxygen, preferably containing at least two Group IA metals and optionally containing at least one material selected from the group consisting of halogen ions and compounds containing halogen ions, phosphorous and compounds containing phosphorous, sulfur and compounds containing sulfur. A method for the oxidative conversion of feed organic compounds to product organic compounds utilizing these solid compositions of matter as solid contact materials is described.

A method for the oxidative conversion of methane to higher hydrocarbons comprising:
- contacting a feed material comprising methane and a free oxygen-containing gas with
- a solid contact material, comprising:
- (1) cobalt, (2) at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Group IA metals, (3) silicon and (4) oxygen,
- under conditions sufficient to convert said methane to said higher hydrocarbons.
A method of the oxidative dehydrogenation of feed organic compounds, comprising at least one saturated C.sub.2 to C.sub.7 hydrocarbon, to product organic compounds, comprising unsaturated hydrocarbons, comprising:
- contacting said feed organic compounds and a free oxygen-containing gas with
- a solid contact material, consisting essentially of (1) cobalt, (2) at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Group IA metals, (3) silicon and (4) oxygen,
- under conditions sufficient to convert said feed organic compounds to said product organic compounds.
