Disclosed is a method for preparing serinol (2-amino-1,3-proanediol). From nitromethane, para-formaldehyde and sodium hydroxide, 1-nitro-1,3-propanediol sodium salt is prepared as a medical intermediate. In a fixed bed, this intermediate is allowed to undergo the continuous hydrogenation of 2-nitro-1,3-propanediol sodium salt and methanol as shown in reaction (1). In addition to being simple, the method is economically favorable and affords the high yield and high purity of serinol.
