Procedure

Using the activated catalyst obtained in Example 43, a reaction for producing methyl acrylate (MA) was conducted in substantially the same manner as in Example 47, except that acrolein was used instead of the methacrolein. Analysis was made with respect to the reaction mixture obtained 10 hours after the start of the reaction. As a result, it was found that the conversion of acrolein was 61.9%, the selectivity for MA was 90.5%, and the selectivity for propylene as a by-product was 1.45%, and that methyl formate was by-produced in an amount of 0.065 mol/mol of MA.
