Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a commercially advantageous method for producing an olefin oxide in high selectivity. SOLUTION: The method for producing propylene oxide comprises the reaction of propylene with oxygen in the presence of water, a halogen compound and a silver catalyst produced by using an alkaline earth metal carbonate as a carrier and having an oxygen adsorption capacity of ≥10 μmol/g. The amount of water is preferably 0.2-10 mol based on 1 mol of propylene and the halogen compound is preferably an organic halogen compound such as ethyl chloride. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
