 for the group is prop-2-enoyl, and it is also (less correctly) known as acrylyl or simply acryl. Compounds containing an acryloyl group can be referred to as "acrylic compounds".

An acrylic compound is typically an a,ß-unsaturated carbonyl compound
Carbonyl

In organic chemistry, a carbonyl group is a functional group composed of a carbon atom double bond to an oxygen atom : C=O.The term carbonyl can also refer to carbon monoxide as a ligand in an inorganic or organometallic complex ; in this situation, carbon is triple-bonded to oxygen : C=O....
