Insoluble in water. | [Fire Hazard]
This chemical is combustible. | [Description]
α-Methylcinnamaldehyde has a characteristic cinnamon-type odor
with a soft, spicy flavor. May be synthesized by condensing benzaldehyde with propionic aldehyde in the presence of a 1% caustic soda
solution; also by the controlled hydrogenation of α-methylcinnamic
aldehyde. | [Chemical Properties]
