Claim:
1. A method for selective hydrogenation of an unsaturated compound, comprising increasing, by weight, an amount of light sulphides present in the unsaturated compound, and isomerizing a monounsaturated compounds during selective hydrogenation of the unsaturated compound, wherein the selective hydrogenation is carried out in the presence of a catalyst having at least one Group VIB metal component and at least one Group VIII non-noble metal component supported on a carrier, wherein: the Group VIB metal component comprises a Group VIB metal oxide in an amount of from 4% to 10% by weight of the catalyst; the Group VIII metal component comprises a Group VIII non-noble metal oxide in an amount of from κ% to 15% by weight of the catalyst; the catalyst comprises a B the carrier is substantially alumina.
