2-Acetoxycinnamic acid, predominantly trans - Introduction
2-Acetoxycinnamic acid, also known as 2-Acetoxycinnamic acid (2-Acetoxycinnamic acid), is an organic compound. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
2-Acetoxycinnamic acid is a white to light yellow crystal or crystalline powder with a unique aroma. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, ethyl ether and methylene chloride, and poorly soluble in water.
Use:
2-Acetoxycinnamic acid is commonly used in the fragrance industry as a synthetic raw material for flavors. Due to its special aromatic smell, it can be used in the fields of food, perfume, medicine and cosmetics to enhance the fragrance of products.
Preparation Method:
2-Acetoxycinnamic acid is generally obtained by esterification of cinnamic acid with acetic anhydride. First, cinnamic acid and acetic anhydride are heated and reacted under acidic conditions to generate 2-acetoxycinnamic acid, and then the pure product is obtained through crystallization, filtration and drying steps.
Safety Information:
The toxicity of 2-acetoxycinnamic acid is low, and there is no obvious acute toxicity. However, as a chemical, attention needs to be paid to its normal use and storage. Avoid direct contact with skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Wear appropriate protective gloves and glasses during use to ensure a well-ventilated operating environment. If splashed into the eyes or skin, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical help. Store should be kept dry, cool, avoid direct sunlight environment, away from flammable substances and oxidants.
