Acylated imidazoles of the formula <IMAGE> where R1 and R3 are each H, alkyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkenyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl or alkylaryl, R4 is H, alkyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkenyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl or alkylaryl, and R5 is alkyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkenyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl, alkylaryl or carboxyl, are prepared by reacting imidazoles of the formula <IMAGE> where R1, R2 and R3 are each alkyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkenyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl or alkylaryl, at least one of the radicals R1, R2 and R3 being hydrogen, and R4 is H, alkyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkenyl of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, aryl, aralkyl or alkylaryl, with widely used acylating agents of the formula <IMAGE> where R5 is as defined above and Y is halide, alkoxy, acyloxy or hydroxyl, in the presence of acidic metal oxides and/or phosphates, preferably in the gas phase.
