The invention I provides a method of producing an alicyclic epoxy compound having a specific structure, which comprises epoxidizing an alicyclic olefin compound having a specific structure by using an aliphatic percarboxylic acid having low water content. The alicyclic epoxy compound is useful for use in coatings, inks, adhesives, sealants, encapsulants, stabilizers or the like. The invention II provides an epoxy resin composition containing the alicyclic epoxy compound as a main component, and a photosemiconductor device comprising a photosemiconductor element encapsulated with the epoxy resin composition. The epoxy resin composition can be cured by heating, thereby obtaining a cured product having excellent moisture and heat resistance and transparency. The invention III provides: an ultraviolet rays-curable can-coating composition containing the alicyclic epoxy compound as a main component, which can be cured by ultraviolet irradiation, and can form a coating film having excellent film performances such as processability, adhesion, hardness and scratch resistance, particularly film appearance and retort resistance; and a process of producing a coated metal can using the composition.
