Ethyl alpha-Cyanocinnamate (CAS 2025-40-3) from TCI is the ethyl ester of alpha-cyanocinnamic acid, combining a conjugated alkene with nitrile and ester electron-withdrawing groups. The doubly activated double bond makes it a highly reactive Michael acceptor and an effective electron-poor dienophile in cycloaddition chemistry. It is also studied as a model monomer in anionic polymerization and as a precursor to nitrogen-containing heterocycles. AMI Scientific supplies this reagent in a 25 g pack for research laboratories.
