Isoamyl cinnamate Usage And Synthesis
DescriptionIsoamyl cinnamate has a balsamic odor reminiscent of cocoa. May be prepared by esterification of cinnamic acid with commercial isoamyl alcohols, which vary in isomer distribution according to source.
Chemical Propertiespale yellow liquid with an iridescent sheen
Chemical PropertiesIsoamyl cinnamate has a balsamic odor reminiscent of cocoa.
OccurrenceReported found in cinnamon and port wine
DefinitionChEBI: Isoamyl cinnamate is a cinnamate ester.
PreparationBy esterification of cinnamic acid with commercial isoamyl alcohols, which vary in isomer distribution according to source.
Taste threshold valuesTaste characteristics at 35 ppm: sweet, floral, powdery, berry, and spice nuances
General DescriptionPale yellow liquid with iridescent sheen.
Air & Water ReactionsInsoluble in water.
Reactivity ProfileAn ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
Fire HazardIsoamyl cinnamate is probably combustible.
