:3-methylcinnamic acid
Description:
3-Methylcinnamic acid is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and a carboxylic acid functional group. It features a methyl group attached to the third carbon of the cinnamic acid backbone, which consists of a phenyl ring connected to a propenoic acid moiety. This compound typically appears as a white to pale yellow crystalline solid and is known for its pleasant, floral aroma, making it of interest in the fragrance industry. It has a moderate melting point and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. 3-Methylcinnamic acid can undergo various chemical reactions, including esterification and hydrogenation, and is often used as a building block in organic synthesis. Additionally, it exhibits potential biological activities, which may include antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, although further research is needed to fully understand its pharmacological effects. Overall, 3-methylcinnamic acid is a versatile compound with applications in both chemical synthesis and the fragrance industry.

CAS:(E)-3-(m-Tolyl)acrylic acid is a natural flavonoid compound found in plants. It is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of phenylpropanoids, which are a group of plant secondary metabolites. (E)-3-(m-Tolyl)acrylic acid has been shown to inhibit the production of heterocyclic amines, which are carcinogenic compounds formed during the cooking process of meat and fish. In addition, this compound has been shown to have cytotoxic effects on cancer cells and inhibitory effects on malonic acid production in plants. (E)-3-(m-Tolyl)acrylic acid is synthesized from cinnamic acid derivatives and hydroxyl groups. It is also produced by sulfonation of eugenol with sulfuric acid followed by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide.Formula:C10H10O2Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:162.19 g/mol
