CAS 140-10-3
:trans-Cinnamic acid
Description:
Trans-cinnamic acid is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and is classified as a phenolic acid. It is a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature, with a characteristic sweet, balsamic odor. The compound is known for its trans configuration, where the phenyl and carboxylic acid groups are on opposite sides of the double bond, contributing to its stability and reactivity. Trans-cinnamic acid is slightly soluble in water but readily dissolves in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. It has a melting point that typically falls within a specific range, indicating its crystalline nature. This compound is primarily used in the synthesis of various flavoring agents, fragrances, and as a precursor in the production of other chemicals. Additionally, trans-cinnamic acid exhibits biological activities, including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Its CAS number, 140-10-3, is a unique identifier that facilitates its recognition in chemical databases and regulatory frameworks.

CAS:Cinnamic acid is a phenolic acid that is found in plants and has a general structure of CH2-C6H4-CO2H. It can be metabolized by the enzyme cinnamate 4-hydroxylase to caffeic acid. Cinnamic acid has been shown to have genotoxic activity through its ability to form DNA adducts, which can cause mutations in cells. This compound also has antioxidant properties and may be used as an anticancer agent due to its ability to inhibit proliferation of cancer cells and induce apoptosis. Cinnamic acid inhibits the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in rat primary astrocytes, which may lead to the development of inflammatory eye disorders such as uveitis or retinal detachment. The compound is also able to suppress the expression of toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), which may make it useful for treatment of infectious diseases. Cinnamic acid also forms hydrogen bondsFormula:C9H8O2Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:White PowderMolecular weight:148.16 g/mol
