Reaction is carried out by stirring the solution at 120° C. for 2 hours and then at 160° C. for 3 hours in an atmosphere of nitrogen gas. After reaction is finished, the reaction solution is allowed to cool and poured into ice water, followed by extraction with ether. The extract is washed with water saturated with sodium chloride and concentrated. The residue is distilled under reduced pressure to obtain 5.86 g of 3-benzylpyrrole as a colorless liquid. Yield 71.2%. nD29.5 1.5790. Boiling point 95°-98° C. (0.09 mmHg).
