Abstract: Provided are silicone elastomer particles having a crosslinked structure which is active with respect to biodegradability, and can provide texture and feel during use that is equal to or higher than conventional silicone elastomer particles when blended in a cosmetic composition or the like, a reactive group-containing polycaprolactone compound having a specific structure and useful as a raw material for synthesis reactions, and a method for producing the same. A polycaprolactone compound containing a reactive group having two or more modified polycaprolactone structures has the structural formula (1) as described herein, where in the formula, n is a number in the range 1 to 5 and Ra is a specific (meth)acryl terminal group or alkenyl terminal group, specifically, a compound selected from the aforementioned (meth)acryl-modified polycaprolactone compounds and alkenyl-modified polycaprolactone compounds.
