To obtain the subject new compound comprising a bicycloalkene derivative and useful for providing a polymer having excellent etching and heat resistances, adhesive strength and resolution.
This compound comprises a bicycloalkene derivative represented by the formula [R! and R" are each H or a 1-4C alkyl; (m) is 1-8; (n) is 1-6], e.g. tertiary butyl 5-norbornene-2-carboxylate. The compound is obtained by mixing cyclopentadiene with a tetrahydrofuran solvent, adding a hydroxyalkyl acrylate (e.g. 3-hydroxypropyl acrylate or 4-hydroxybutyl acrylate) to the resultant reactant, stirring and reacting the reactants, removing the solvent from the product after the reaction and affording a bicycloalkene derivative represented by the formula (e.g. 3-hydroxypropyl 5-norbornene-2-carboxylate or 4-hydroxybutyl 5-norbornene-2-carboxylate) which is the resultant product.
