However, in the method of reacting acrylonitrile with aqueous ammonia or liquid ammonia, in order to efficiently obtain 3-aminopropionitrile, it is necessary to react acrylonitrile with ammonia in a large molar excess of ammonia. . Moreover, when a primary alcohol such as methanol is used as a solvent, 3-alkoxypropionitrile is by-produced by the reaction of alcohol and acrylonitrile, and the yield of 3-aminopropionitrile is reduced, and the distillation purification step is performed. It becomes extremely complicated. Furthermore, in the method of using a tertiary alcohol such as a tertiary butanol as a solvent, the melting point of the alcohol rises and becomes a solid state at room temperature, so that the operability is significantly deteriorated. There was a problem to be done.
