Series of Mo-W-Ni sulfides were synthesized by several procedures, characterized in detail and tested in the hydrodenitrogenation of o-propylaniline and quinoline. Elementary reactions and rate determining steps on the surface were identified while the morphological features of the bulk sulfides were correlated with the catalytic performance.
