The present invention relates to a method of producing 2-(isopropylamino)ethanol, including subjecting acetone, 2-aminoethanol, and hydrogen to a vapor-phase catalytic reaction in the presence of a noble metal-containing catalyst. According to the present invention, 2-(isopropylamino)ethanol can be industrially obtained in a large amount and with high efficiency through the vapor-phase catalytic reaction of acetone, 2-aminoethanol, and hydrogen. 2-(Isopropylamino)ethanol is a compound useful as a rawmaterial for a drug, an agricultural chemical, or the like. |
