Acryloyl group

In organic chemistry, the acryloyl group is a form of enone with structure H2C=CH−C(=O)−; it is the acyl group derived from acrylic acid. The preferred IUPAC name for the group is prop-2-enoyl, and it is also known as acrylyl or simply (and incorrectly) as acryl. Compounds containing an acryloyl group can be referred to as "acrylic compounds". * at the C=C bond: electrophilic addition of acids and halogens, hydrogenation, hydroxylation and cleavage of the bond, * at the C=O bond: nucleophilic substitution (such as in esters) or nucleophilic addition (such as in ketones).
