(Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, maleimide having good purity and quality can be obtained in good yield by allowing supercritical carbon dioxide to act on a maleimide crude product. As is clear from the comparative examples, conventional distillation methods, recrystallization methods, etc. have low purity and yield;
In the case of N-octadecenylmaleimide, it was virtually impossible to obtain a purified product on an industrial scale, but in the present invention, a purified product with a purity of 95% can be obtained on a sufficiently industrial scale.
% by weight or more of maleimide is obtained.
