What is N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide?

Chemical properties

white crystalline powder

The Uses of N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide

N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide is used in the preparation of polyacrylamide gels for electrophoretic separation of nucleic acids and proteins. It has also been used as a test compound for studying the biochemical isolation of insoluble Tau in transgenic mouse models of tauopathy by examining the two main isolation methods sarkosyl and formic acid extraction.

The Uses of N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide

Organic intermediate, cross-linking agent.

The Uses of N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide

General Description

White crystalline powder with a neutral odor.

Air & Water Reactions

Very slightly water soluble.

Reactivity Profile

N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide is incompatible with strong oxidizers, strong acids and strong bases.

Hazard

Toxic by ingestion.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data for N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide are not available; however, N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide is probably combustible.

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion. Experimental reproductive effects. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.

Purification Methods

Recrystallise the amide from MeOH (100g dissolved in 500mL boiling MeOH) and filter without suction in a warmed funnel. Allow to stand at room temperature and then at -15oC overnight. The crystals are collected with suction in a cooled funnel and washed with cold MeOH. The crystals are air-dried in a warm oven. [Beilstein 2 IV 1472.] VERY TOXIC (neurotoxic).
