Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object is to provide a method for easily producing maleimide (MI) in which trace amounts of residual acid components as impurities in a crude MI are efficiently reduced, that is, the acid value is sufficiently reduced. <1> A method for producing purified MI, comprising reducing an acid value of crude MI by 50% or more, by adding carbodiimide (CDI) to a solution comprising the crude MI to react an acid component in the crude MI with the CDI. <2> The method for producing purified MI, comprising adding 0.5% by mass or more and 8% by mass or less of the CDI with respect to a mass of the crude MI for reaction. <3> The method for producing purified MI, wherein the CDI is N,N′-diisopropyl carbodiimide (DIC). <4> The method for producing purified MI, comprising removing a urea derivative of the CDI (CDI-U) by-produced when reacting the acid component in the crude MI with the CDI.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for producing purified maleimide (MI), comprising reducing an acid value of crude MI by 50% or more, by adding carbodiimide (CDI) to a solution comprising the crude MI containing an acid component to react the acid component in the crude MI with the CDI. 2. The method for producing purified MI of claim 1 , comprising adding 0.5% by mass or more and 8% by mass or less of the CDI with respect to a mass of the crude MI for reaction. 3. The method for producing purified MI of claim 1 , wherein the CDI is N,N′-diisopropyl carbodiimide (DIC). 4. The method for producing purified MI of claim 1 , comprising removing a urea derivative of the CDI (CDI-U) by-produced when reacting the acid component in the crude MI with the CDI. 5. The method for producing purified MI of claim 4 , wherein a method for removing the CDI-U is a reprecipitation method or a solvent extraction method. 6. The method for producing purified MI of claim 5 , wherein a solvent used for the reprecipitation method or the solvent extraction method is methanol. 7. The method for producing purified MI of claim 2 , wherein the CDI is N,N′-diisopropyl carbodiimide (DIC). 8. The method for producing purified MI of claim 2 , comprising removing a urea derivative of the CDI (CDI-U) by-produced when reacting the acid component in the crude MI with the CDI.
