Vinyl azlactone, ≥ 95%

Vinyl azlactone is a reactive monomer containing a highly electrophilic azlactone ring and a vinyl functional group, enabling rapid polymerization and chemical grafting. Its azlactone moiety readily reacts with nucleophiles such as amines and thiols, making it valuable in functionalized coatings, adhesives, and biomaterials.
Hydrolyzes to N-acryloyl-2-methylalanine.

Applications:

Reactive Coatings & Adhesives: Forms durable covalent bonds with amine-functionalized surfaces.
Bioconjugation & Protein Immobilization: Used in bioactive surface modification.
Polymer Synthesis: Enhances chemical reactivity in functionalized polymer systems.
