Methyl cyanoacetate is a crucial organic compound with the chemical formula C₁₁H₁₉NO₂. It serves as a key raw material for synthesizing α-cyanoacrylate adhesives (the base material for “super glue” or “502 glue”), widely used in fields such as orthodontics, dental restorations, and orthopedic joint fixation. It is produced by reacting sec-amyl alcohol with cyanoacetic acid.
