Abstract

A method for producing a 5-norbornene-2-spiro-α-cycloalkanone-α′-spiro-2″-5″-norbornene, comprising: a first step of forming a specific Mannich base by reacting a specific carbonyl compound and a specific amine compound with each other in an acidic solvent comprising a formaldehyde derivative and an acid represented by a formula: HX (in the formula, X represents F or the like), to thereby obtain a reaction liquid comprising the Mannich base in the acidic solvent; and a second step of reacting the Mannich base and a specific diene compound with each other by adding an organic solvent, a base in an amount of 1.0 to 20.0 mole equivalents to the acid, and the diene compound to the reaction liquid, and then heating the reaction liquid, to thereby form a specific 5-norbornene-2-spiro-α-cycloalkanone-α′-spiro-2″-5″-norbornene, wherein a content of the acid in the acidic solvent used in the first step is 0.01 to 0.075 mole equivalents to the ketone group of the carbonyl compound.
