N -hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) is the N -hydroxy derivative of phthalimide . The connection is u. a. as a catalyst for oxidation reactions, especially for the selective oxidation of u. a. Alkanes are used to form alcohols with molecular oxygen under mild conditions.

Occurrence and representation

The synthesis of N -hydroxyphthalimide (known as "phthalylhydroxylamine") from phthaloyl chloride and hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of sodium carbonate in aqueous solution was first reported in 1880 by L. Cohn.

Preparation of N-hydroxyphthalimide from phthalic acid dichloride

The red sodium salt is formed in a basic solution, from which the white form of the NHPI precipitates in 55% yield by acidification.

The reaction of diethyl phthalate with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of sodium ethoxide also leads to N -hydroxyphthalimide.

The reaction of phthalic anhydride with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and Na 2 CO 3 in water at 95 ° C gives N- hydroxyphthalimide as pale yellowish needles in 95% crude yield, from which almost colorless NHPI is obtained in 76% pure yield by recrystallization from water.

Microwave irradiation of phthalic anhydride and hydroxylamine hydrochloride in pyridine produces NHPI in 81% yield.

Even without adding a base, phthalic anhydride and hydroxylamine phosphate react when heated to 130 ° C. to form N- hydroxyphthalimide in 86% yield .

properties

N -hydroxyphthalimide is a colorless to yellow, odorless crystalline powder that is soluble in water and organic solvents such as acetic acid, ethyl acetate and acetonitrile. The compound exists in two different colored monoclinic crystal forms. In the colorless white form, the N-OH group is rotated by approx. 1.19 ° from the molecular plane, in the yellow form only by approx. 0.06 °.

The color formation during the synthesis of the NHPI depends on the type of solvent used; the color transition from white to yellow is irreversible. With alkali and heavy metals, ammonia and amines, NHPI forms strongly colored, mostly yellow or red salts. The hydrolysis of NHPI by adding strong alkalis produces phthalic acid monohydroxamic acid.

NHPI ethers, on the other hand, are colorless and yield O -alkyl hydroxylamines on alkaline hydrolysis or cleavage using hydrazine hydrate .

The molecular structure between phthalic anhydride monooxime (“phthaloxime”) (I), 2,3-benzoxazine-1,4-, which has been uncertain and controversial since the first description of N -hydroxyphthalimide as "phthalylhydroxylamine" in 1880 until the mid-1950s dione (II) and N -hydroxyphthalimide (III)

Isomeric structures of C8H5NO3

It was possible to decide in favor of N -hydroxphthalimide (III) by displaying and analyzing reaction products.

Applications

With N -hydroxyphthalimide, as with N -hydroxysuccinimide (HOSu), with carboxylic acids and a carbodiimide , such as. B. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimid , form so-called active esters with elimination of water ,

Formation of N-hydroxyphthalimide active esters

which have not found widespread use in peptide synthesis compared to the HOSu esters because of their higher water solubility and reactivity.

Esters of N -hydroxyphthalimide with activated sulfonic acids , such as. As trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride or p -Toluolsulfonsäurechlorid are as so-called Photo acids ( English photoacids ) which, when used in UV irradiation eliminate protons.

UV reaction with NHPI triflate

The protons generated are used for the targeted local degradation of acid-sensitive photoresists .

N -hydroxyphthalimide can be converted with vinyl acetate in the presence of palladium (II) acetate with 75% yield into N- vinyloxyphthalimide, which is quantitatively hydrogenated to N -ethoxyphthalimide and, by cleavage with hydroxylamine sulphate with 83% yield, O -ethylhydroxylamine ( Ethoxyamine).

Preparation of O-alkoxyamines via N-hydroxyphthalimide

A multitude of different functions in organic molecules can be carried out with the nitroxide radical (phthalimide- N- oxyl, PINO), which is formed by abstraction of a hydrogen atom from NHPI - similar to the piperidine derivative 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxyl (TEMPO) - oxidized under mild conditions.

Formation of the PINO radical

Thus, with molecular oxygen, alkanes can be oxidized to alcohols, secondary alcohols to ketones, acetals to esters, or alkenes to epoxides.

Amides can be converted into carbonyl compounds with NHPI and cobalt (II) salts under mild conditions.

Oxidation of amides with N-hydroxyphthalimide

Of technical interest are efficient oxidation reactions of precursors of important basic chemicals, such as. As ε-caprolactam , by using NHPI from the oxidation of cyclohexane resulting so-called KA oil ( "ketone alcohol" oil - a mixture of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone ) - about Cyclohexanolhydroperoxid, reaction with ammonia to Peroxydicyclohexylamin and rearrangement in the presence catalytic amounts of lithium chloride to ε-caprolactam.

Oxidation of KA oil to caprolactam

The oxidation of KA oil, catalyzed by NHPI, avoids the formation of the undesired by-product ammonium sulfate that occurs in the conventional ε-caprolactam synthesis - Beckmann rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime with sulfuric acid .

Alkanes are converted into nitroalkanes in the presence of nitrogen dioxide .

Nitration / oxidation of cyclohexane using NHPI

For example, cyclohexane is converted into a mixture of nitrocyclohexane (70%), cyclohexyl nitrate (7%) and cyclohexanol (5%) at 70 ° C. with nitrogen dioxide / air .

In addition, uses of N -hydroxyphthalimide as an oxidizing agent in photographic developers and as a charge control agent in toners have been described in the patent literature.
