Zusammenfassung:To provide a method for producing polyethylene glycol having a terminal carboxyl group in which an expensive reagent or a highly toxic heavy metal compound is not used and which can suppress increase in polydispersity. A method for producing polyethylene glycol having a terminal carboxyl group including oxidizing polyethylene glycol represented by formula (I): CH 3 O(CH 2 CH 2 O) n (CH 2 ) m -CHO with potassium peroxymonosulfate in water whose pH is adjusted to be from 6 to 8 with at least one selected from the group consisting of a carbonate, a phosphate, a citrate and an acetate at 5 to 40°C to produce polyethylene glycol represented by formula (II) : CH 3 O(CH 2 CH 2 O) n (CH 2 ) m -COOH (in the formulae above, n is a number from 10 to 1,100, and m is 2 or 3.)
