QUICK LINKS

3,3-Dimethylacryloyl chloride (DMAC) is an organic compound classified as an acryloyl chloride. It exists as a colourless liquid and serves as a reagent in organic synthesis. It plays a vital role in the synthesis of polymers like polyacrylates, essential for manufacturing paints, coatings, adhesives, and other industrial products. Moreover, 3,3-Dimethylacryloyl chloride contributes to the synthesis of monomers like methyl methacrylate, a fundamental component in the production of plastics and resins. As an acryloyl chloride, 3,3-Dimethylacryloyl chloride encompasses a carbon-carbon double bond and a chlorine atom. This double bond renders it susceptible to nucleophilic attack, allowing various nucleophiles such as amines, alcohols, and carboxylic acids to react with it. When a nucleophile attacks the double bond, a reaction ensues, resulting in the formation of a new bond between the nucleophile and the chlorine atom, accompanied by the liberation of a chloride ion.
