1. A process for the gas phase synthesis of allyl acetate, which comprises reacting propylene, acetic acid and oxygen in the gas phase in the presence of a catalyst prepared by impregnating a catalyst carrier with an aqueous solution of a palladium salt and a salt of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of copper, lead, ruthenium and rhenium in an amount corresponding to 90 to 95% of the water absorption of the carrier, treating the impregnated carrier with an aqueous solution of an alkali metal salt in an amount corresponding to 120 to 500% of the water absorption of the carrier to precipitate water-insoluble compounds of palladium and at least one metal selected from the group consisting of copper, lead, ruthenium and rhenium on the catalyst carrier, treating the metal compounds-deposited carrier with a reducing agent to convert the compounds to the corresponding metals, and further supporting an alkali metal acetate on the carrier.
