Valeraldehyde having an acid value of 2.1 mg-KOH/g was used as the starting material. 199 g (2.37 mol) of cyclopentanone, 60 g of water and 1.2 g (0.014 mol) of 48% NaOH were introduced into a 500-mL four-necked flask. Then the mixture was cooled to 15° C. under stirring and 60 g (0.70 mol) of valeraldehyde was added dropwise at the same temperature over 5 hours. Thereafter, the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 2 hours. After the reaction had finished, the mixture was neutralized and analyzed in the same manner as in Example 1. The result indicated that the reaction mixture contained 107 g (0.63 mol) of 2-(1-hydroxy-n-pentyl)cyclopentanone (yield 90.5%) and 2.0 g (0.013 mol) 2-pentylidene cyclopentanone.
