Chemical Structure

Basic Info
It is a derivative from methyl ester. It is a solid that can be white or transparent and has a strong aroma. This substance is found in many plants including strawberries and certain cooking spices like Sichuan peppercorns or some basil varieties. Eucalyptus has the highest concentration (98%) of methylcinnamate, with fresh weights in leaves and branches ranging between 2-6%.
The crystals of methyl cinnamate are white or slightly yellow with a cherry like aroma. Melting point 34degC. Refractive index (nD20), 259.6degC. Relative density (d435) is 1.0700. It is soluble in ethanol (one ml per 4 mL of 80% ethanol), propylene glycol and glycerol. Mineral oils are also soluble. There are natural products in galangal, cassia and basil oils (up to 52%).
