1. A process for producing a water-absorbent resin, comprising polymerizing a water-soluble monoethylenic unsaturated monomer in the presence of a crosslinking agent, wherein said crosslinking agent is a compound represented by the following formula ##STR9## wherein R1 and R2 denote a hydrogen atom or a methyl group independently;

  • X denotes a divalent, straight chain organic group comprising structural units A, B and optionally C, whereinA is 1 to 5 units of --CO--CH═

    CH--CO--O--,B is 2 to 100 units of --CH2 CH2 O--, andC is 0 to 20 units of --R3 O--, wherein R3 is a branched or straight chain C3 -C4 alkylene, with the provisos (i) that B should be located on both sides of structural unit A when X includes structural units A and B, but not C, and (ii) that at least one of B and C may be located on both sides of structural unit A when X includes A, B and C.
