(57) [Problem] To provide a method for producing an amine oxide having a good odor and a good long-term storage stability. SOLUTION: In producing the amine oxide represented by the general formula (I), after the amidoamine is reacted with hydrogen peroxide, the pH is adjusted to 9 to 13 by adding an alkali. Embedded image (In the formula, R 1 represents an alkyl group having 7 to 25 carbon atoms, R 2 and R 3 represent an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and n represents a number of 2 to 3. ) |
