A process for producing an arylamine is provided which is characterized by reacting an aromatic halogen compound with an aromatic amine in the presence of an organic salt selected from specific pyridinium salts, imidazolium salts and quaternary onium salts, a copper catalyst, and a base. Thus, the reaction of even an aromatic halogen compound substituted by an electron-donating group proceeds efficiently, and an inexpensive chlorinated aromatic compound or brominated aromatic compound is usable, and an arylamine, in particular a triarylamine or diarylamine, having a high purity can be produced at low cost.
