Abstract: Provided is a method for producing an imide ether compound in high yield. The method is characterized in that a nitrile compound, an alcohol, and a hydrogen halide are continuously introduced into a flow reaction device comprising a mixer and a flow reactor, to be subjected to a reaction. Because a reaction proceeds in a ratio of 1:1 by a flow reactor, selectivity is improved and generation of by-products is decreased, and thus an imide ether compound can be efficiently produced.

Abstract: A method of increasing expression of a molecular chaperon by a cell and/or enhancing the activity of a molecular chaperon in cells is provided. The method comprises treating a cell that is exposed to a physiological stress which induces expression of a molecular chaperon by the cell with an effective amount of a certain hydroxylamine derivative to increase the stress. Alternatively, an hydroxylamine derivative can be administrated to a cell before it is exposed to a physiological stress which induces expression of a molecular chaperon by the cell. Preferably, the cell to which an hydroxylamine derivative is administered is an eukaryotic cell. The hydroxylamine derivative corresponds to the formulae (I) or (II). The invention also provides novel hydroxylamine derivatives falling within the scope of the formulae (I) and (II) as well as pharmaceutical and/or cosmetical compositions comprising the said compounds.
