Cinnamyl Acetate CAS 103-54-8

The core function is to serve as the fixative and flavor modifier of food essence, and improve the overall sensory experience of food by adjusting the release rate of aroma and enhancing the sense of aroma hierarchy. Its application covers three mainstream aroma types: fruity, floral, and spicy, including:

Tropical fruits: In tropical fruit essence such as pineapple, mango and banana, the natural sense and persistence of aroma can be enhanced by simulating the ester volatilization characteristics of mature fruits. For example, the addition of 0.5% -1% cinnamic acetate in pineapple essence can make the aroma gradually transition from the initial sharp acidity to the base note sweet fruity flavor.

Drupe: In the essence of cherry, peach, apricot and other drupes, it cooperates with benzaldehyde, γ - caprolactone and other components to build a three-dimensional aroma structure of "flesh+stone". According to the Japanese Public Regulations on Food Additives, the purity of cinnamic acetate in cherry essence should be ≥ 98%, and the amount should be strictly controlled at 0.1% -0.3% to avoid covering the main body of fruit flavor.
Berries: In strawberry, blueberry, raspberry and other berry essence, balance the sour sweet ratio by inhibiting the volatilization of sour substances. For example, adding 0.2% cinnamate acetate to strawberry essence can reduce the perceived acidity by 15%, while improving the aroma diffusion radius.

It has an elegant aroma and is often used as a spice additive in the field of spices. By reacting with cinnamyl alcohol, a cinnamyl ether compound can be generated, which has a stronger aroma and better dispersibility. It is widely used in the production of soaps, cosmetics, and perfumes, serving as a fragrance enhancer that imparts a pleasant aroma to these products. Its floral scent is particularly suitable for formulating bellflower, jasmine, and gardenia fragrances, adding depth and complexity to perfumes. It is also employed as a fixative, ensuring the long-lasting scent of perfumes.

As an intermediate in organic synthesis, it has extensive application value in the field of organic synthesis. Through the reaction of this product with other compounds, various organic compounds can be synthesized, such as coumarins, flavonoids, etc. These compounds have extensive application value in fields such as medicine, pesticides, and chemical engineering. Therefore, it can be used as a synthetic intermediate in organic synthesis reactions.

It has good chemical stability and heat resistance, and can be used as a food additive in food processing, particularly as a flavoring agent. It is commonly used in the formulation of food flavors such as cherry, grape, peach, apple, and pineapple, enhancing the taste and aroma of various food products. For example, when making chocolate, candy, and other foods, adding an appropriate amount of this additive can increase the aroma and taste of the food, improve the quality and taste of the food. Its usage is regulated by food safety standards, ensuring its purity and safety for consumption. In addition, it can also be used for disinfection and sterilization of food packaging materials to ensure food safety and hygiene.

Cinnamyl acetate has been widely used as a raw material for organic synthesis and fine chemical production. Due to its stable chemical properties, it can participate in various organic reactions such as ester exchange, addition, and esterification, and is commonly used as a raw material for the preparation of other compounds. Its ester group located at the allyl position enables it to easily generate allyl metal reagents under the catalysis of transition metals, promoting various organic transformations. For example, various ester compounds such as glycerol acetate and cellulose acetate can be prepared through ester exchange reactions between the substance and alcohol compounds. These compounds have wide application value in fields such as coatings, adhesives, and plastics. In addition, it can also be used to prepare insecticides and fungicides.

Due to its excellent solubility and mild fragrance, it is commonly used in cosmetics. It can be used as a perfume additive in perfume, bath gel, shampoo and other cosmetics, as well as as a solvent for making lipstick, eye shadow and other cosmetics. In addition, it can also be used to make skincare products such as sunscreen and whitening cream.

It also has extensive application value in the field of biomedicine. For example, it can serve as a carrier for anti-tumor drugs, effectively delivering them to the tumor site. In addition, it can also be used for the preparation of drug precursors and drug delivery systems. These applications help improve the efficacy of drugs and reduce side effects.
