Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Cinnamyl Alcohol is suitable for ambery and solar flowers notes. Brings a cinnamon facet that is both warm and spicy. Very good fixator.
Year of discovery :
1881
Natural availability :
Cinnamyl Alcohol is naturally present in Ceylon Cinnamon EO (and other origins), Peru Balsam Resinoid and Tolu Balsam Resinoid, from which it can be extracted by fractional distillation.
Isomerism :
Cinnamyl Alcohol exists as two diastereomers naturally present in nature: the (E) trans form is the most abundant in nature and can be extracted from many plants such as Styrax EO. Cis form is much more powerful (see Other Comments). Ethyl Vanillin is a constitutional isomer of Cinnamyl Alcohol, although their smell is different as Cinnamyl Alcohol is much spicier and less sweet.
Synthesis precursor :
Cinnamyl Alcohol is a precursor to the synthesis of cinnamyl esters, such as Cinnamyl acetate or Cinnamyl Benzoate, which are used in perfumery.
Synthesis route :
Cinnamyl Alcohol is synthesized by a reduction of Cinnamaldehyde, the major component of cinnamon essential oil. This can be done in three ways. The Meerwein-Ponndorf reduction (85% yield) reduces the aldehyde in the presence of Benzyl or Isopropyl Alcohol and their aluminum alkoxide. A second reduction is made with a yield of 95%, in the presence of osmium tetroxide. Finally, a last reduction can be made from Cinnamaldehyde in the presence of sodium tetrahydruroborate.

Annexe I :
Some regulated synthetic ingredients are found in nature and in certain proportions in natural ingredients. This presence in nature has to be taken into account when calculating limits of use recommended by the IFRA. In case you do not know these concentrations, you can use the ones estimated by the IFRA. Here they are :
