A process for producing an oxime is provided, wherein the process
comprises the step of reacting a ketone, hydrogen peroxide and ammonia in
the presence of a crystalline titanosilicate having MWW structure under
the condition that the ammonia concentration in the liquid portion of the
reaction mixture is about 1% by weight or more. By the process, an
ammoximation reaction of the ketone can be carried out with a high
conversion of the ketone and a high selectivity to the oxime
corresponding to the ketone, thereby producing the oxime with a high
yield.
