A process for producing cumene, characterized by preparing a copper-based catalyst by reducing a copper-based catalyst precursor containing copper in an oxidized state with hydrogen in liquid cumene, and subjecting cumyl alcohol to hydrogenolysis in the presence of the copper-based catalyst, and a process for producing propylene oxide which includes that process.
