Abstract
A catalyst for the production of unsaturated aldehyde and unsaturated carboxylic acid by the vapor-phase catalytic oxidation of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of propylene, isobutylene, t-butanol and methyl-t-butyl ether and a method for the production of unsaturated aldehyde and unsaturated carboxylic acid by the use of this catalyst are provided. The catalyst of this invention comprises (A) a catalyst having Mo, Bi and Fe as essential components and used for the production of unsaturated aldehyde and unsaturated carboxylic acid by vapor-phase catalytic oxidation of propylene, isobutylene, t-butanol and/or methyl-t-butyl ether and (B) a solid acid having acid strength (Ho) of not more than -11.93. Since this catalyst excels in catalytic activity and service life, it allows unsaturated aldehyde and unsaturated carboxylic acid to be produced stably at a high yield for a long time.
