Abstract: A number of unsubstituted cyclic imides were synthesized from cyclic anhydrides, hydroxylamine hydrochloride NH 2 OH (HCl), and 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) under microwave irradiation in a mono-mode microwave. This synthesis gave the unsubstituted cyclic imides in high yields (61-81%) instead of the predicted N-hydroxy cyclic imides which were found to be the minor products.
