Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Benzyl Cinnamate is used mainly in oriental perfumes as a fixative note. Used in heavy fragrances, reproducing notes of vanillic tree resin.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Benzyl Cinnamate is found in Peru Balsam Resinoid and in Tolu Balsam Resinoid as well as in Copahu EO or Cabreuva EO, among others. Therefore, natural Benzyl Cinnamate can be extracted from these balsams and essential oils.
Isomerism :
Benzyl Cinnamate has a double bond allowing the existence of two diastereoisomers (Z) and (E) which have a similar smell.
Synthesis precursor :
Benzyl CInnamate is not a precursor to the synthesis of another compound of olfactory interest.
Synthesis route :
Benzyl Cinnamate is synthesized by an esterification reaction, using Cinnamic Acid, Benzyl Alcohol and an acidic catalyst such as sulfuric acid.
