The phase diagram of the system Bi/sub 2/0/sub 3/-MoO/sub 3/, which catalyzes the partial oxidation of olefins to unsaturated aldehydes or nitriles or to dienes, was studied by X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis. Eight compounds were identified in the bismuth-molybdenum range from 14:1 (7Bi/sub 2/O/sub 3/.MoO/sub 3/) to 2:3 (Bi/sub 2/O/sub 3/.3MoO/sub 3/). The correspondence of these compounds to catalyst compositions reported in literature was analyzed.
