PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing an amide compound from a primary alcohol and at least one selected from a primary amine, a secondary amine and derivatives of those under relatively mild conditions with high selectivity and a high conversion ratio.SOLUTION: A method for producing an amide compound comprises a step of obtaining the amide compound from a primary alcohol and at least one selected from a primary amine, a secondary amine and derivatives of those, in the presence of a catalyst comprising a carrier formed by crosslinking a crosslinkable functional group of a styrene-based polymer having a side chain containing the crosslinkable functional group, and a nanosize cluster and carbon black supported on the carrier, wherein the nanosize cluster is at least one selected from a nanosize gold cluster and a nanosize cluster of gold and at least one group 8 metal selected from iron, cobalt and nickel. |
