The present invention provides a process for producing an optically active allene represented by formula (1): wherein R2 and R3 are different and each represents a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted C1-20 alkyl group or an optionally substituted C6-20 aryl group, and R4 represents an acyl group, which comprises reacting an allene derivative represented by formula (2): wherein R1 represents a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted acyl group and R2 and R3 have the same meaning as defined above, with an acylating agent having an acyl group represented by R4 when both R1s are each a hydrogen atom or with water when both R1s are each an acyl group represented by R4, in the presence of an enzyme catalyst. According to this production process, an optically active allene can be produced efficiently and enantioselectively from an allene derivative having a symmetrical structure.
