Abstract

The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a catalyst for preliminary reaction and a preliminary reaction method, which are suitable for a composition that is obtained by adding a thiol compound and an isocyanate compound to an episulfide compound; and a polymerizable composition for optical materials, which is capable of preventing yellowing of an optical material which contains a composition that is obtained by adding a thiol compound and an isocyanate compound to an episulfide compound. The above-mentioned problem can be solved by a polymerizable composition for optical materials, which contains a thiourethane oligomer that is obtained by preliminarily reacting the whole or a part of a thiol compound and an isocyanate compound in a composition that contains an episulfide compound, the thiol compound and the isocyanate compound, while using a compound represented by formula (2) below as a catalyst for preliminary reactionIn formula (2), R represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; and X represents an organic group which has 2 to 11 carbon atoms and contains a vinyl group, a vinylidene group or a vinylene group.
