CAS 121-33-5

Vanillin

Description:

Vanillin, with the CAS number 121-33-5, is an organic compound that serves as the primary component of the extract of vanilla beans. It is a white to yellowish crystalline solid with a characteristic sweet, creamy aroma reminiscent of vanilla. Chemically, vanillin is classified as a phenolic aldehyde, with the molecular formula C8H8O3. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) and an aldehyde group (-CHO) attached to a benzene ring, contributing to its distinctive flavor and fragrance properties. Vanillin is soluble in alcohol and ether but has limited solubility in water. It is widely used in the food industry as a flavoring agent, in perfumery, and in pharmaceuticals for its aromatic qualities. Additionally, vanillin exhibits antioxidant properties and has been studied for potential health benefits. Its synthesis can occur naturally through the hydrolysis of glycosides in vanilla pods or can be produced synthetically from guaiacol or lignin, making it accessible for various applications in both culinary and industrial contexts.

Vanillin - synthetic

CAS: 121-33-5

Vanillin is an inhibitor molecule that has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against a bacterial strain. Vanillin binds to the surface of bacteria and prevents them from adhering to surfaces, which may be due to its high values for biological properties. This compound is also an inhibitor molecule in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It binds to the DNA polymerase enzyme, preventing it from synthesizing DNA. Vanillin inhibits bacterial growth by binding to DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, thereby preventing transcription and replication. The high frequency of human activity has been shown using a patch-clamp technique on human erythrocytes.

Vanillin - natural

CAS: 121-33-5

Vanillin - natural is an organic compound, which is a key flavor and fragrance component derived from the seed pods of Vanilla planifolia, commonly known as vanilla beans. This compound is obtained through a meticulous extraction process that preserves its natural aromatic properties, setting it apart from its synthetic counterpart. The source of natural vanillin involves curing and fermenting the vanilla pods, allowing the development of its characteristic vanilla scent and taste.
