Abstract

Abstract A method for preparing a resin having light color comprises the steps of: hydrogenating a compound represented by the formula (1) ##STR1## wherein l, m and n are integers of 0≦l≦3, 0≦m≦8 and l≦n≦3, respectively, and R 1 and R 6 each represent a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon residue having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, with or without R 5 and R 6 forming a ring, in the presence of a Ziegler catalyst containing a transition metal compound of the groups IV to VI of the Periodic Table and an organometallic compound of the groups I to III of the Periodic Table in combination to obtain a norbornene compound represented by the formula (2) ##STR2## wherein l, m, n and R 1 and R 6 are the same as above; and polymerizing the norbornene compound to give the resin having light color.
