Summary:The present invention relates to the production of a norcamphane dicarbonitrile and is directed to solving the problems of low conversion from the starting material, low selectivity and uneconomical production. According to the present invention, a norcamphane dicarbonitrile is produced by hydrocyanation of bicyclo [2,2,1]-5-heptene-2-carbonitrile in the presence of a zero-valent nickel complex catalyst and a Lewis acid.
