Description

N-Phenylmethacrylamide is a cross-linking agent that is used in the preparation of polymers. It reacts with amine groups to form amides, which are then reacted with sodium salts to form polyamides. The amide group can also be used for synthesizing polyurethanes and other polymers. N-Phenylmethacrylamide is soluble in organic solvents and has low toxicity. It can be activated by radiation or by reaction with a hydroxyl group and forms a bond by hydrogen bonding with other functional groups, such as hydroxyls, carbonyls, nitrogens, and sulphurs. This compound can be used as an effective chemotherapy drug because it binds to DNA strands and inhibits the synthesis of RNA and protein in cells.
