Uses
Uses in perfumery :
Phenyl Ethyl Cinnamate is used to bring volume and as a fixative in perfumes. It enlarges the perfume and brings tenacity, especially for rosy notes.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Natural availability :
Phenyl Ethyl Cinnamate can be extracted from Populus balsamifera bud extract. Nevertheless, the synthetic molecule is used most of the time in perfumery.
Isomerism :
Phenyl Ethyl Cinnamate used in perfumery corresponds to the trans isomer of this molecule. The cis isomer has a relatively similar smell.
Synthesis precursor :
Phenyl Ethyl Cinnamate is not a precursor for the synthesis of another compound of olfactive interest.
Synthesis route :
Phenyl Ethyl Cinnamate is synthesized by an esterification reaction involving cinnamic acid and Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol. This reaction uses a small quantity of catalysor as concentrated sulfuric acid. A better synthesis yield can result from this reaction by using chlorocinnamic acid or cinnamic anhydride, more costly. This synthesis involves the use of the trans isomer of cinnamic acid.
