Cinnamaldehyde History

 Cinnamaldehyde (CAS NO.104-55-2) was isolated from cinnamon essential oil in 1834 by Dumas and Péligot and synthesized in the laboratory by Chiozza in 1856.

3. Structure Descriptors of Cinnamaldehyde
The molecule of cinnamaldehyde consists of a phenyl group attached to an unsaturated aldehyde. As such, the molecule can be viewed as a derivative of acrolein. Its color is due to the π → π* transition: increased conjugation in comparison with acrolein shifts this band towards the visible.

6. Preparation of Cinnamaldehyde
Although Cinnamaldehyde is obtained from Chinese cassia oils, it is synthesized by action of alkali upon a mixture of benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde.
      C6H5CH=O + CH3CH=O → C6H5CH=CHCH=O
This and most other products for fragrances must be purified by, for example, vacuum fractionation.

7. Use of Cinnamaldehyde
1) The extensive use for Cinnamaldehyde is as a flavoring.Concentrations required for flavoring food items like chewing gum,  candy, ice cream,and beverages range from 9 to 4900 ppm (that is, less than 0.5%).
2) Cinnamaldehyde is used in some perfumes of natural, sweet, or fruity scents. Almond, apricot, butterscotch, and other aromas may partially employ the compound for their pleasant smells.
3) Cinnamaldehyde can be used as a food adulterant; powdered beechnut husk aromatized with cinnamaldehyde can be marketed as powdered cinnamon.
4) Cinnamaldehyde is also used as a fungicide. .
