Cyanoethyl methacrylate is an organic compound characterized by its methacrylate functional group and a cyanoethyl substituent. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. This compound is known for its ability to polymerize, making it useful in various applications, including adhesives, coatings, and as a monomer in the production of polymers and copolymers. The presence of the cyano group enhances its reactivity and can impart specific properties to the resulting polymers, such as improved adhesion and thermal stability. Cyanoethyl methacrylate is also noted for its relatively low volatility and moderate viscosity, which can be advantageous in formulation processes. However, like many methacrylate compounds, it can be irritant to skin and eyes, and appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it. Overall, its unique chemical structure allows for versatility in industrial applications, particularly in the fields of materials science and polymer chemistry.

2-Cyanoethyl methacrylate is a synthetic, reversible covalent polymer that is orally bioavailable. It has been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of cancer in animal models. 2-Cyanoethyl methacrylate has also been used as a functional group for synthetic nanocarriers to target specific cells. This material is often used as an antigen carrier in immunizations or as a coating on dry weight and solid oral dosage forms to prevent antigen degradation by gastric acids or intestinal enzymes.
