The present invention is to provide a method of producing an
N-alkylaminoalkyl (meth)acrylate containing a small amount of low boiling
components, especially, containing a small amount of raw components,
without any complicated operations or special apparatuses. The method of
producing an N-alkylaminoalkyl (meth)acrylate comprising the steps of:
(A) performing the reaction between the (meth)acrylic acid ester and the
N-alkylaminoalkyl alcohol in a presence of a catalyst to obtain a
reaction solution containing the N-alkylaminoalkyl (meth)acrylate; (B)
distilling out components which have lower boiling points than the
N-alkylaminoalkyl (meth)acrylate from the reaction solution obtained by
the step (A); and (C) distilling the N-alkylaminoalkyl (meth)acrylate;
and further comprising the step of: (D) adjusting water concentration at
a range from 0.01 to 1 wt %. in the reaction solution which is located
after the step (A) and before the step (C).
