It has been shown previously (I) that the reduction of a synthesized hydrated nickel molybdate ‘Ni0, Mo03, 2Hz0’by hydrogen at a temperature above 250 C leads to a catalyst active in hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexane at 100 C. The nickel ions in the initial binary compound are not reduced merely into the state of metallic nickel, as evidenced by the fact that its X-ray pattern is absent. The second component (molybdenum oxide) is also reduced and gives with nickel the intermetallic compound MoNi,(2). This reduction at a fairly low temperature (somewhat above 2SO’C) is not encountered with the anhydrous nickel molybdate (NiMo04), for which a temperature range of 500-600 C is required (3). In the case of ternary HDS catalysts, NiO (3%), MoOj (10%) on y-A120j, calcined before use at 500 C and therefore containing Ni MOO,, the reduction at 350 C does not even produce MoOz to any significant extent. The subsequent sulfidation of this oxide is difficult, in contrast to Moo3 (4), and the catalysts reduced below 350 C before sulfidation were active in HDS whereas reduction at higher temperatures impaired the catalytic activity.The intermetallic MoN& formed by lowtemperature reduction of hydrated nickel molybdate, where the initial surface area (236 m’/g) drops only very little by reduction (230 m2/g) is an interesting compound to exploit for catalytic activity. Indeed, recently various intermetallics have been found to be of great interest as catalysts for various reactions. Among them are RE, Ni,(RE= rare earth or lanthanum) intermetallics which are active in CO hydrogenation, toluene dealkylation, and ethane hydrogenolysis (5), while other intermetal-
