is a colorless to pale yellow oily liquid. It has a strong cinnamon aroma with sweet and hot aroma. It is easily oxidized by air, and the oxidation product is cinnamic acid. Molecular weight 132. 17, boiling point 246 ℃, melting point -7.5 ℃, flash point 120 ℃, relative density of 1. 049~1. 055, refractive index of 1.619~1.625. Soluble in ethanol, ether, chloroform, insoluble in water and glycerol.
cinnamaldehyde exists in a variety of essential oils, with the highest content of cinnamon oil in China, up to 85% ~ 90%. Cinnamaldehyde is separated from cinnamon oil. The traditional chemical separation method is to use sodium bisulfite and aldehyde group nucleophilic addition to form salt crystal precipitation (but this reaction can also produce stable 1,4 addition disulfonate compound, with water-soluble easy to waste), and then NaOH decomposition will be more pure cinnamaldehyde; Such as acetic anhydride reaction made Diethyl ester, and then crystallization filtration, and then dilute sulfuric acid decomposition can also be more pure cinnamaldehyde; the fractionation method can also obtain relatively pure cinnamaldehyde.
for the formulation of spices. It can also be used as a food preservative.

use | cinnamaldehyde is one of the important pharmaceutical raw materials. Commonly used in external drugs and synthetic drugs. Because it can promote blood circulation, warm the skin, tighten the skin tissue, and be used for external massage to make the limbs and body comfortable, the phenomenon of water retention can be fully improved, and it has a strong lipolysis effect. It is effective for the softening and removal of skin scars and fibroids. Scattered congestion. It has antithrombin effect, sedative, analgesic, antipyretic, anticonvulsant and other effects. It also has the effect of inhibiting mold. In addition, cinnamaldehyde is one of the important spices, often used in soap flavors, to make mast, vegetarian, lily of the valley, rose and other flavors. Used in food for fruit preservation, etc. The latest research shows that cinnamaldehyde used in chewing gum can have dual effects of sterilization and deodorization. as a preservative, it can be used for the preservation of fruits according to the regulations of our country, and it can be used in an appropriate amount according to the production requirements. It can also be used as a edible spice. China's regulations can be used for the preservation of fruits, and it can be used appropriately according to production needs. It can also be used as a edible spice. Spices; preservatives. GB 2760-96 stipulates that edible spices are allowed to be used. Mainly used to prepare cinnamon, cinnamon, cola flavors, and also used in alcohol and tobacco. The regulations can also be used for fruit preservation, with the dosage GMP; Residual amount ≤ 0.3 mg/kg. Flavoring agent for preparing soap essence, pastry and other foods Solvent, seasoning, pharmaceutical raw material intermediates, essence and spice, etc. |

production method | cinnamon oil or cinnamon oil is added by sodium bisulfite method, and the adduct of cinnamaldehyde and sodium bisulfite is separated by centrifugation method, washed with ether, decomposed with dilute alkali or acid solution, distilled with water and distilled under reduced pressure. In the presence of sodium hydroxide, it is obtained by condensation of benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde: mix benzaldehyde, acetaldehyde, water and sodium hydroxide solution and oscillate at room temperature for one week, and the obtained oil is extracted with ether, Benzyl dryness, vacuum distillation. Aldol condensation method uses benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde as raw materials to form cinnamaldehyde under alkaline conditions. 133kg of benzaldehyde, 400kg of water, 10kg 40% ~ 50% of sodium hydroxide, 66.6kg of acetaldehyde and 40~50kg of benzene were added to the reaction pot successively, and stirred at 20 ℃ for 5 hours. After the reaction, let it stand and delaminate, take the benzene layer, and then wash it with dilute acid and water until neutral. After benzene is recovered by vacuum distillation, the fraction at 130 ℃(2.67kPa) is collected to obtain 55~60kg of cinnamaldehyde. Essential oil mono-separation method cinnamon oil and Ceylon oil contain about 55% ~ 85% cinnamaldehyde, which can be separated by sodium bisulfite addition method. The adduct is separated by centrifugation, dilute acid or dilute alkali decomposition, steam distillation and vacuum distillation to obtain cinnamaldehyde. (1) hydroxyl condensation method. Benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde are used as raw materials. Condensation under alkaline conditions to produce cinnamaldehyde. 133kg of benzaldehyde, 400kg of water, 10kg 40%-50% of sodium hydroxide, 66.6kg of acetaldehyde and 40-50kg of benzene were added to the reaction pot successively, and stirred at 20 ℃ for 5 hours. After the reaction, let it stand and delaminate, take the benzene layer, and then wash it with dilute acid and water until neutral. After benzene is recovered by vacuum distillation, the fraction at 130 ℃(2.67Kpa) is collected to obtain 55-60kg of cinnamaldehyde. (2) Essential oil separation method. Cinnamon oil and Ceylon oil contain about 55%-85% cinnamaldehyde, which can be separated by sodium bisulfite addition. The adduct is separated by centrifugation, dilute acid or dilute alkali decomposition, steam distillation and vacuum distillation to obtain cinnamaldehyde. |
