A process is described for producing, by transhydrogenation, an unsaturated analog of a feed compound containing an aliphatic moiety having 2 to 5 carbon atoms, and a saturated analog of a cofeed compound which is a light olefin. The process comprises contacting the feed compound and the cofeed compound with a non-acidic catalyst, said catalyst comprising a dehydrogenation metal and a non-acidic crystalline microporous material containing a metal modifier selected from Sn, In, Pb and Tl under conditions to dehydrogenate at least a portion of the feed compound and hydrogenate at least a portion of the cofeed compound.
