N-(hydroxy)phthalimide is a chemical compound that can be used as an oxidation catalyst. It can also be used in analytical methods, such as a chemiluminescent reaction with coumarin derivatives to measure the body mass index of individuals. The redox potentials of N-(hydroxy)phthalimide have been shown to depend on its substituents. This compound is able to oxidize many types of molecules, including hydrochloric acid and trifluoroacetic acid, which are often used in analytical procedures. N-(hydroxy)phthalimide has also been shown to catalyze oxidation reactions of hydroxy groups when they are bound to other functional groups.

N-Hydroxyphthalimide

Aerobic oxidation of various alcohols has been accomplished by using a new catalytic system, N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) combined with Co (acac). A practical catalytic method to convert alkylbenzenes into the corresponding carboxylic acids under atmospheric dioxygen at ambient temperature using a combined catalytic system consisting of N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) and Co (OAc) 2 was developed. Novel catalysis by N-hydroxyphthalimide in the oxidation of organic substrates by molecular oxygen was described. Free radical functionalization of organic compounds catalyzed by N-hydroxyphthalimide. Purely organic and catalytic systems of anthraquinones and N-hydroxyphthalimide efficiently promote oxygenation of hydrocarbons with dioxygen under mild conditions. Hydroxylation of polycyclic alkanes with molecular oxygen catalyzed by N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) combined with was transition metal salts.
