PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel 3(4), 7(8)-dihydroxymethyl-bicyclo[4.3.0]nonane and its production method. SOLUTION: In the production method, bicyclo[4.3.0]nona-3,7-diene is reacted with a synthesis gas at 70-160°C under a pressure of 5-35 MPa in a homogeneous organic phase in the presence of a transition metal compound of group VIII of elemental periodic table containing an organic phosphorus compound bonded through a complex salt and an excess organic phosphorus compound, and thus obtained 3(4), 7(8)-bisformyl-bicyclo[4.3.0]nonane is hydrogenated to give 3(4), 7(8)-dihydroxymethyl-bicyclo[4.3.0]nonane.
