Cinnamaldehyde is an organic compound with the formula C 9 H 8 O or C 6 H 6 CH=CHCHO. Occurring naturally as predominantly the trans ( E ) isomer, it gives cinnamon its flavor and odor . [ 1 ] It is a phenylpropanoid that is naturally synthesized by the shikimate pathway . [ 2 ]
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/100 ml), unless shown otherwise. The substances are listed in alphabetical order.
It is obtained from oil of cinnamon, or from balsams such as storax. [4] It is also found in shea butter. [citation needed] Cinnamic acid has a honey-like odor; [2] and its more volatile ethyl ester, ethyl cinnamate, is a flavor component in the essential oil of cinnamon, in which related cinnamaldehyde is the major constituent.
The compound is a solid at room temperature, forming colorless crystals that melt upon gentle heating. As is typical of most higher-molecular weight alcohols, it is sparingly soluble in water at room temperature, but highly soluble in most common organic solvents.
Amygdalin 2 H 2 O HCN benzaldehyde 2 × glucose 2 × Benzaldehyde contributes to the scent of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus). Reactions Benzaldehyde is easily oxidized to benzoic acid in air at room temperature, causing a common impurity in laboratory samples. Since the boiling point of benzoic acid is much higher than that of benzaldehyde, it may be purified by distillation. Benzyl ...

Methyl cinnamate is the methyl ester of cinnamic acid and is a white or transparent solid with a strong, aromatic odor. It is found naturally in a variety of plants, including in fruits, like strawberry, and some culinary spices, such as Sichuan pepper and some varieties of basil. [4]
