FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention is related to a process for preparing catalyst, method for ammoxidation of olefin and catalyst. The catalyst is represented by the following formula: Mo₁₂Bi_aFe_bA_cD_dE_eF_fG_gCe_hO_x, wherein A is at least one element selected from the group consisting of sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium; D is at least one element selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt, manganese, zinc, magnesium, calcium, strontium, cadmium and barium; E is at least one element selected from the group consisting of chromium, tungsten, boron, aluminium, gallium, indium, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, vanadium and tellurium; F is at least one element selected from the group consisting of a rare earth element, titanium, zirconium, hafnium, niobium, tantalum, aluminium, gallium, indium, thallium, silicon, germanium, and lead; G is at least one element selected from the group consisting of silver, gold, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, platinum and mercury; and a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h and n are, respectively, the atomic ratios of bismuth (Bi), iron (Fe), A, D, E, F, cerium (Ce) and oxygen (O), relative to 12 atoms of molybdenum (Mo), wherein a is from 0.05 to 7, b is from 0.1 to 7, c is from 0.01 to 5, d is from 0.1 to 12, e is from 0 to 5, f is from 0 to 5, g is from 0 to 0.2, h is from 0.01 to 5 and x is the number of oxygen atoms required to satisfy the valence requirements of the other component elements present. The elements in said catalyst are combined together in an aqueous catalyst precursor slurry, the aqueous precursor slurry so obtained is dried to form a catalyst precursor, and the catalyst precursor is calcined to form said catalyst, the process comprising: (i) combining, in an aqueous solution, source compounds of Bi and Ce, and optionally one or more of Na, K, Rb, Cs, Ca, a rare earth element, Pb, W and Y, to form a mixture, (ii) adding a source compound of molybdenum to the mixture of (i) to react with the mixture and form a precipitate slurry, and (iii) combining the precipitate slurry with source compounds of the remaining elements and of the remaining molybdenum in the catalyst to form the aqueous catalyst precursor slurry.

EFFECT: greater overall conversion to end products.
