N-Methylmorpholine N-Oxide (NMMO)
N-methyl morpholine - N-oxide (NMO or NMMO) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C5H11NO2.At room temperature, it is in forms of crystalline solid or liquid, which is non-toxic, slightly alkaline, soluble in water, ethanol, etc., strong hygroscopicity, and each molecule can be combined with more than one crystal water, has a strong solubility of cellulose. Such heterocyclic amine oxides and morpholine derivatives are used as co-oxidants and sacrificed catalysts for oxidation reactions in organic chemistry, such as osmium oxide and asymmetric dihydroxylation or oxidation with TPAP. NMMO is commercially available in the form of monohydrate C5H11NO2·H2O and anhydrous compounds. In Lyocell production of cellulose fibers, monohydrate is used as a solvent for cellulose.
