An isomerization method for bis(amino-methyl)cyclohexane that has an isomerization step for isomerizing bis(amino-methyl)cyclohexane in the presence of an imine compound represented by general formula (1) and one or more type of compound selected from the group comprising an alkali metal, an alkali-metal-containing compound, an alkali earth metal, and an alkali-earth-metal-containing compound. (In general formula (1), R 1 and R 2 each independently indicates a monovalent group selected from the group comprising a hydrogen atom, a substituted or un-substituted hydrocarbon group, a substituted or un-substituted alkoxy group, and an acyl group. (R 1 and R 2 may be bonded to each other and form a ring.) R 3 indicates an n-valent group selected from the group comprising a hydrogen atom and a substituted or un-substituted hydrocarbon group, n being an integer from 1 to 10.) |
