The present invention provides: a cyclic diol compound that is useful as a resin raw material, such as a polyester rein, polycarbonate resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane resin, polyacrylic acid ester resin, polymethacrylic acid ester resin, and polyester polyol resin, and a resin modifier thereof; or a production method therefor. The present invention relates to a compound represented by general formula (1), a production method therefor, or a use thereof. [In the formula, individual R1 are the same or different and each indicate a hydrogen atom, a C6-12 aryl group, or a C1-4 linear or branched alkyl group. X indicates a group represented by general formula (a), general formula (b), general formula (c), or general formula (d). (In formulae (a)-(d), the wavy line indicates a binding site. Individual R2 are the same or different and each indicate a hydrogen atom, a fluorine atom, a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, a C1-4 linear or branched alkyl group, or a C1-7 linear or branched alkoxy group.)]
