However, these methods have problems such as the fact that relatively expensive and hard to obtain raw materials must be used, and they are not satisfactory from an industrial viewpoint. Therefore, there is a demand for a method of directly synthesizing an aromatic aldehyde from a cheaper and easily available aromatic hydrocarbon as a raw material. Some of the present inventors have found a method of converting an aromatic hydrocarbon to a corresponding aromatic aldehyde by directly subjecting an aromatic hydrocarbon to a carbonylation reaction by a combination of a complex catalyst and light irradiation. (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 64-6222) [Problems to be solved by the invention] However, since the catalyst activity is low in such a method, sufficiently high productivity cannot be obtained, and it is not sufficiently satisfactory as an industrial production method. . That is, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing an aromatic aldehyde with high productivity by using an aromatic hydrocarbon as a raw material and directly performing a carbonylation reaction treatment under light irradiation.
