Definicija

Faintly balsamic, honey-like, nearly odorless. Cinnamic acid is a quiet molecule — its value is chemical, as a precursor to more expressive cinnamic derivatives.

Miris

Very faint at ambient temperature. A mild, honey-balsamic quality if concentrated or warmed. Low volatility limits olfactory impact. Less aromatic than any of its ester derivatives. On blotter, barely detectable — the molecule's low vapor pressure keeps it from reaching the nose effectively.

Detaljno

CAS 140-10-3. Trans-3-phenyl-2-propenoic acid. A crystalline solid found in storax, tolu balsam, Peru balsam, and shea butter. Cinnamic acid itself has a very faint aroma — mildly balsamic, slightly honey-like — because its low volatility limits how much reaches the nose.

The molecule is more important as a chemical building block than as an odorant. Cinnamic acid is the parent compound of the cinnamate family — its esters (methyl cinnamate, ethyl cinnamate, cinnamyl alcohol, cinnamaldehyde) are all significant perfumery materials with much stronger and more defined scents.

In perfumery, cinnamic acid appears naturally in balsams (it is one of the main non-volatile components of Peru and tolu balsams) and contributes to their warm, balsamic character indirectly through slow ester hydrolysis on skin.

Dobijanje i hemija

Način dobijanja

Produced synthetically by Perkin reaction (condensation of benzaldehyde with acetic anhydride) or Knoevenagel condensation. Found naturally in balsams but not commercially extracted from them. The Perkin reaction for cinnamic acid synthesis, developed in 1868, is one of the oldest named reactions in organic chemistry.

U parfemima

Chemical intermediate and minor component of natural balsams. Cinnamic acid is not used as a standalone perfumery ingredient. Its significance is structural — as the parent compound of cinnamate esters (cinnamaldehyde, cinnamyl alcohol, methyl cinnamate) that are common. In balsams, cinnamic acid and its esters collectively provide warm, balsamic character. The molecule also has UV-absorbing properties, making it relevant to sunscreen chemistry.
