N-Propylmaleimide

Description:
N-Propylmaleimide is an organic compound characterized by its maleimide structure, which features a five-membered ring containing a carbonyl group and a double bond. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, exhibiting a distinctive odor. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly in Michael addition reactions, where it can act as an electrophile due to the presence of the maleimide moiety. N-Propylmaleimide is soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and ethanol but has limited solubility in water. It is often used in polymer chemistry, particularly in the synthesis of specialty polymers and as a crosslinking agent in various applications. Additionally, it can serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may cause skin and eye irritation. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials is recommended to maintain its stability and reactivity.
