Methacrylamide
Methacrylamide (CAS: 79-39-0), with the linear formula H₂C=C(CH₃)CONH₂, is an organic compound with a molecular weight of 85.10 g/mol. It functions as a valuable building block in chemical synthesis, particularly within the realm of organic chemistry. This amide derivative finds application in the creation of polymers and as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Methacrylamide is typically supplied as a purum grade with an assay of ≥98.0% (HPLC).

Polymer Synthesis
Methacrylamide can serve as a monomer or co-monomer in the synthesis of various polymers. Its structure allows for incorporation into polymer chains, modifying properties like solubility, thermal stability, and reactivity.
Organic Synthesis Intermediate
As a functionalized building block, methacrylamide is used in multi-step organic syntheses. It provides a reactive vinyl group and an amide functionality, enabling diverse chemical transformations for creating novel compounds.
Research and Development
In laboratory settings, methacrylamide is employed in R&D for exploring new chemical pathways and developing innovative materials or pharmaceutical intermediates.
