Abstract FTIR analysis of the gaseous products of the selective catalytic reduction of NO by isobutane over a Fe‐MFI catalyst made by solid‐state ion exchange shows, for the first time, that HCN can be a substantial product. Under dry conditions the amounts formed can exceed that of N2 for temperatures up to 280°C and NO conversions of 25% with a maximum HCN concentration of∼150 ppm formed at 315°C. However, introduction of 0.7% water causes the subsequent conversion of about one‐half the HCN to N2, probably through hydrolysis to NH3 and the NH3‐SCR reaction which is very rapid on Fe‐MFI. The steps through which HCN forms remain to be established.
