Method for producing 2-cyanoethyl group-containing organic compound

摘要

Provided is a method for producing a 2-cyanoethyl group-containing organic compound having a high ratio of replacement by cyanoethyl groups and a high dielectric constant. More specifically, provided is a method for producing a 2-cyanoethyl group-containing organic compound comprising a step of reacting acrylonitrile with a hydroxyl group-containing organic compound in the presence of a quaternary ammonium salt as a catalyst through a Michael addition.
