Description:Hydrocinnamaldehyde is a reactive aldehyde that is used for the synthesis of other compounds. It can be obtained by catalyzing the oxidative cleavage of cinnamyl alcohol. Hydrocinnamaldehyde is also found in marine environments, where it reacts with oxygen to form an unstable compound called hydrocinnamic acid. Hydrocinnamic acid then undergoes an oxidation-reduction process that converts it to hydrocinnamaldehyde. Hydrocinnamaldehyde is one of two carbene precursors used in the Grubbs reaction, which allows for the selective formation of C-C bonds from alkenes and alkynes. The other carbene precursor, methyllithium, is commercially unavailable and has been replaced by hydrocinnamaldehyde as a more economical alternative in this reaction.Hydrocinnamaldehyde can also be used to synthesize palytoxin, which is a toxic compound found in shellfish such as oysters and clams
