Akryyliryhmä
Akryyliryhmä, also known as the acryloyl group, is a chemical functional group with the general formula CH2=CHCO. It is characterized by a vinyl group directly attached to a carbonyl group. This specific arrangement of atoms makes the akryyliryhmä highly reactive, particularly in polymerization reactions. The double bond in the vinyl portion is susceptible to addition reactions, and the carbonyl group influences the electron distribution and reactivity of the molecule.
Compounds containing the akryyliryhmä are often referred to as acrylates or acryloyl compounds. These substances are
