METHOD FOR PRODUCING UNSATURATED BICYCLO[2.2.1]HEPTANE DERIVATIVE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an industrially advantageous method by which the yield of the objective substance is improved in the method for subjecting a raw material containing norbornane-alcohols to a dehydrating reaction and producing the unsaturated bicyclo[2.2.1] compound. SOLUTION: This method for producing the unsaturated bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivative comprises regulating the concentration of a compound having a higher boiling point than that of the norbornane-alcohols by >=20 deg.C in the raw material to <=3 mass %; and then carrying out the reaction when the raw material containing the norbornane-alcohols is subjected to the dehydrating reaction.
