General description

N-Hydroxymaleimide (NHMI) is an organic compound that is widely used as an oxidizing agent in organic synthesis. It is frequently used to selectively oxidize thiols to disulfides and in the synthesis of α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. It can also act as a Michael acceptor and is used in the synthesis of peptides and proteins.

Application

N-Hydroxymaleimide can be used as an oxidant to generate N-hydroxy anilines in situ, which serve as key intermediates in the selective coupling reaction of N-substituted anilines with hydroxylamine derivatives, for the efficient synthesis of aromatic oximes.
