Moderately toxic by
ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. A skin
irritant. Combustible liquid. When heated to
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and
fumes. See also ALLYL COMPOUNDS. | [Toxicity]
The acute oral LD50 in rats was reported to be 3.3 g/kg (2.9-3.7 g/kg) (Moreno, 1972). The acute dermal LD50 was reported to be > 5 g/kg in the rabbit (Moreno, 1972). |
| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Cinnamyl acetate has a characteristic balsamic-floral odor and burning, sweet taste reminiscent of pineapple. The ester
obtained from natural cinnamyl alcohol exhibits a more delicate (hyacinth–jasmine-like) note. | [Chemical Properties]
clear colorless to pale yellowish liquid | [Occurrence]
Reported found in melon, starfruit, tarragon and litchi. | [Application]
Cinnamyl acetate is used as a modifier for Cinnamic alcohol and as a warm-spicy-floral note in heavy florals, Hyacinth, etc. It can also introduce warmth to a Rose composition at a discrete concentration level. Used in flavor compositions for imitation Apple, Apricol, Berry, Cherry, Cinnamon, Cassia, Grape, Peach, Pineapple, Quince, Vanilla, etc.
| [Definition]
ChEBI: An acetate ester resulting from the formal condensation of cinnamyl alcohol with acetic acid. Found in cinnamon leaf oil. | [Preparation]
By direct esterification of cinnamic alcohol with acetic acid (or anhydride) under azeotropic conditions (Arctander, 1969). | [Taste threshold values]
Taste characteristics at 15 ppm: sweet, spicy, floral, cinnamon and honey with a tutti-fruitti nuance. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
