Abstract

A method for preparing acrolein or methacrolein comprises subjecting propylene, secondary propanol, isobutylene or tertiary butanol to gas phase catalytic oxidation with molecular oxygen in the presence of a catalyst represented by the following general formula (I): EQU Mo.sub.a Bi.sub.b Fe.sub.c X.sub.d Y.sub.O Z.sub.f O.sub.g (I) wherein X represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ni and Co; Y represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of K, Rb, Cs and Tl; and Z represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ce, Ti, Zr, Nb, Cr, W, Mn, Cu, Ag, Zn, Cd, B, Al, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, P, As, Sb, S, Se and Te; a, b, c, d, e, f and g each represents an atomic ratio of the corresponding element and when a is assumed to be 12, b=0.1.about.10, c=0.1.about.20, d=2.about.20, e=0.01.about.2, f=0.about.4 and g represents the number of oxygen atoms required for satisfying the valency requirement of the constituent elements, wherein the catalyst used is prepared by separately preparing solutions each of which contains the starting compound for the foregoing catalyst components, mixing these solutions within a…
