FRAGRANCE | [Uses]
cinnamon oil (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) is said to have a stimulating effect on the skin. It can also be used for fragrance. Widely recognized for its tonic and antiseptic properties, cinnamon oil is very important in traditional pharmacopoeia. Cinnamon oil is used in a wide variety of skin care and make-up preparations. It is obtained from distillation of the plant’s leaves. It can cause irritation if used in high doses. | [EPA Substance Registry System]

| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Cassia oil (Chinese cinnamon oil) is obtained by steam distillation of the
leaves, twigs, and bark of Cinnamomum aromaticum Nees (Cinnamomum
cassia Blume, Lauraceae) mainly growing in China. It is a reddish-brown liquid
with a sweet–spicy, cinnamon-like odor.
d2020 1.052–1.070; n20D 1.6000–1.6140; solubility: 1 vol in 3 vol of 70%
ethanol at 20 ℃; acid number: max. 15; content of carbonyl compounds
(calculated as cinnamaldehyde): min. 80%.
In contrast to cinnamon bark oil, cassia oil contains a considerable amount
of 2-methoxycinnamaldehyde (3–15%) in addition to its main constituent,
cinnamaldehyde (70–88%). Cassia oil is used predominantly in
flavoring soft drinks (cola-type). Annually ≥600 t are produced in China,
smaller quantities in Vietnam. | [Chemical Properties]
See cinnamic aldehyde, its chief con-
stituent.
| [Chemical Properties]
The volatile oil obtained by steam distillation from the dried inner bark of the shoots of coppiced, cultivated bushes of
C. zeylanicus Nees. It has an odor of cinnamon and a spicy burning taste. | [Physical properties]
It is a yellow liquid and soluble in most fixed oils and propylene glycol. It is insoluble in glycerin
and in mineral oil. | [Occurrence]
Found in the bark of the shrub Cinnamomum zeylanicum Nees (Fam: Laura-ceae). | [Definition]
Extractives and their physically modified derivatives. Cinnamomum cassia, Lauraceae. | [Preparation]
By steam distillation of the dried inner bark of the shrub C. zeylanicum Nees (Guenther. 1950). | [Essential oil composition]
The chief constituent of cinnamon bark oil is cinnamic aldehyde | [Composition]
Cinnamaldehyde and eugenol have been reported to be the main constituents in the oil and extract of C. zeylanicum, while others have also reported eugenyl acetate. However, the composition of cinnamon oil, and hence its potential use, depends very much on the species that is distilled as well as the part of the plant which is utilized. Cinnamon bark oil contains cinnamaldehyde as the major constituent, while cinnamon leaf oil’s major constituent is eugenol rather than cinnamaldehyde. Cinnamon has been found to be effective in inhibiting the mycotoxigenic Aspergillus species Aspergillus parasiticus. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Taste at 10 ppm | [Metabolism]
Cinnamic aldehyde, the chief constituent of cinnamon bark oil, is oxidized to cinnamic acid, which is then degraded to benzoic acid (Williams, 1959). Additional published data |
