BRN 0125098 ; Maleanil ; Maleimidobenzene ; Maleinanil ; N-Fenylimid kyseliny maleinove ; N-Fenylimid kyseliny maleinove [Czech] ; NSC 8183?; 1H-Pyrrole-2,5-dione, 1-phenyl- ; Maleimide, N-phenyl-?.?N-Phenylmaleimide (CAS NO.941-69-5) is?yellow crystalline powder or needles. It is sparingly water soluble.?N-Phenylmaleimide is an imide.?Amides are very weak bases (weaker than water). Imides are less basic yet and in fact react with strong bases to form salts. That is, they can react as acids. Mixing amides with dehydrating agents such as P₂O₅ or SOCl₂ generates the corresponding nitrile. The combustion of these compounds generates mixed oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Amides/imides react with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed by the reaction of organic amides/imides with strong reducing agents. Flash point data for N-Phenylmaleimide are not available.?It?is probably combustible.
