Abstract

PURPOSE: To produce a 2-imidazoline in high yield without producing hydrogen sulfide as a byproduct, free from staining and corrosion caused by an ion generated when a salt catalyst is used by reacting a diamine compound with a nitrile compound in the presence of a metal oxide. CONSTITUTION: A 2-imidazoline (e.g. 2-methylimidazoline) is obtained by reacting a 1,2-diamine compound such as ethylene diamine of the formula H2 NCHR<1> CHR<2> NHR<3> (R<1> to R<3> are each H, an aliphatic group, an araliphatic group or an aromatic group) with a nitrile compound such as acetonitrile of the formula R<4> CN (R<4> is R<1> ) in a liquid phase in the presence of a metal oxide such as copper oxide.
