ALPHA-N-AMYL CINNAMYL ACETATE Usage And Synthesis

Aroma

Mild oily -fruity and somewhat green odor with balsamic and faintly floral undertones. Finds but little use in perfumery, mainly as a modifier for floral-green components of Jasmin and other floral complexes. Occasionally used in flavor compositions, for imitation Chocolate, Fruit and Honey flavors - usually in traces only.

Chemical Properties

α-Amylcinnamyl acetate has a mild fruity, green odor with a balsamic and slightly floral undernote; somewhat fruity flavor.

Occurrence

Has apparently not been reported to occur in nature.

Uses

α-Amylcinnamyl Acetate can be used for fragrant substances for hair cosmetics.

Preparation

From amyl cinnamic alcohol and acetic acid under azeotropic conditions

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 15 ppm: earthy, fruity, spicy, powdery and balsamic.

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic skin irritant.When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke andirritating fumes.

Metabolism

Cinnamic alcohol is mainly metabolized to benzoic acid, presumably via cinnamic acid. Substitution apparently prevents oxidation to benzoic acid, since 2-ethylcinnamic alcohol is partly excreted as α-ethylcinnamic acid (30-33% in rabbits) (Williams, 1959).
