Cinnamic aldehyde or cinnamaldehyde (more precisely trans-cinnamaldehyde, the only naturally-occurring form) is the chemical compound that gives cinnamon its flavor and odor. The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the Vapor pressure of the liquid equals the environmental pressure surrounding the liquid Solubility is the characteristic Physical property referring to the ability of a given substance the Solute, to dissolve in a Solvent. Water is a common Chemical substance that is essential for the survival of all known forms of Life. Viscosity is a measure of the resistance of a Fluid which is being deformed by either Shear stress or Extensional stress. The poise (symbol P pwɑːz is the unit of dynamic Viscosity in the Centimetre gram second system of units.

The flash point of a flammable liquid is the lowest Temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture in air Cinnamic acid has the formula C6H5CHCHCOOH and is a white crystalline Acid, which is slightly Soluble in water In Chemistry, the standard state of a material is its state at 1 bar (100 Kilopascals exactly A chemical compound is a substance consisting of two or more different elements chemically bonded together in a fixed proportion by Mass.

Cinnamaldehyde occurs naturally in the bark of cinnamon trees and other species of the genus Cinnamomum like camphor and cassia. Bark, also known as periderm is the outermost layer of stems and Roots of Woody plants such as Trees It overlays the Wood and consists A tree is a perennial Woody plant. It is most often defined as a woody plant that has many secondary branches supported clear of the ground on a single main stem or A genus (plural genera from Γένος Latin genus "descent family type gender" is a low-level Taxonomic Cinnamomum is a genus of evergreen trees and shrubs belonging to the Laurel family Lauraceae. } Camphor is a waxy white or transparent solid with a strong aromatic odor These trees are the natural source of cinnamon, and the essential oil of cinnamon bark is about 90% cinnamaldehyde.
A yellow oily liquid more viscous than water, cinnamaldehyde smells strongly of cinnamon. Viscosity is a measure of the resistance of a Fluid which is being deformed by either Shear stress or Extensional stress. Cinnamon ( Cinnamomum verum, synonym C zeylanicum) is a small Evergreen Tree 10–15 metres (32
Concentrated cinnamaldehyde is a skin irritant, and the chemical is toxic in large doses, but no agencies suspect the compound is a carcinogen or poses a long-term health hazard. The term carcinogen refers to any substance Radionuclide or radiation that is an agent directly involved in the promotion of Cancer or in the fatation of its propagation Most cinnamaldehyde is excreted in urine as cinnamic acid, an oxidized form of cinnamaldehyde. Cinnamic acid has the formula C6H5CHCHCOOH and is a white crystalline Acid, which is slightly Soluble in water Redox (shorthand for reduction-oxidation reaction describes all Chemical reactions in which atoms have their Oxidation number ( Oxidation state
Both aromatic and an aldehyde, cinnamaldehyde has a mono-substituted benzene ring. An aldehyde is an organic compound containing a terminal Carbonyl group. Benzene, or benzol, is an organic Chemical compound and a known Carcinogen with the molecular formula C 6 H 6 A conjugated double bond (alkene) makes geometry of the compound planar. In Organic chemistry, an alkene, olefin, or olefine is an unsaturated Chemical compound containing at least one Carbon Geometry ( Greek γεωμετρία; geo = earth metria = measure is a part of Mathematics concerned with questions of size shape and relative position Cinnamaldehyde is technically trans-cinnamaldehyde because the terminal carbonyl is on the opposite side of the aromatic ring over the rigid double bond.

A technique to synthesize cinnamaldehyde was published in 1884. Year 1884 ( MDCCCLXXXIV) was a Leap year starting on Tuesday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian calendar (or a Leap year Several methods of synthesis are now known, but cinnamaldehyde is most economically obtained from the steam distillation of the oil of cinnamon bark. Steam distillation is a special type of Distillation (a separation process) for temperature sensitive materials like natural aromatic compounds The compound can be prepared from related compounds like cinnamyl alcohol, (the alcohol form of cinnamaldehyde), but the first synthesis from unrelated compounds was the aldol condensation of benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde. Cinnamyl alcohol is an Organic compound that is found in Esterified form in Storax, Balsam Peru and Cinnamon leaves In Chemistry, an alcohol is any Organic compound in which a Hydroxyl group ( - O[[hydrogen H]]) is bound to a Carbon An Aldol condensation is an Organic reaction in which an Enolate ion reacts with a Carbonyl compound to form a β-hydroxyaldehyde or β-hydroxyketone followed Benzaldehyde (C6H5CHO is a chemical compound consisting of a Benzene ring with an Aldehyde substituent Acetaldehyde, sometimes known as ethanal, is an organic chemical compound with the formula C[[Hydrogen H]]3CH O or MeCHO
The most obvious application for cinnamaldehyde is as a flavoring.

Cinnamaldehyde is used in some perfumes of natural, sweet, or fruity scents. Perfume is a mixture of fragrant Essential oils and Aroma compounds Fixatives and Solvents used to give the human body animals objects and living Sweet is one of the five Basic tastes and is almost universally regarded as a pleasurable experience The term fruit has different meanings dependent on context and the term is not synonymous in Food preparation and Biology. Olfaction (also known as olfactics or smell) refers to the Sense of smell. Almond, apricot, butterscotch, and other aromas may partially employ the compound for their pleasant smells. The Almond ( Prunus dulcis, syn Prunus amygdalus Batsch Amygdalus communis L The Apricot ( Prunus armeniaca, "Armenian plum" in Latin syn Butterscotch is a type of Confectionery made by boiling sugar syrup, Butter, cream, and Vanilla.
Cinnamaldehyde is also used as a fungicide. Fungicides are Chemical compounds or biological organisms used to kill or inhibit fungi or fungal spores [2] Proven effective on over 40 different crops, cinnamaldehyde is typically applied to the root systems of plants. Agriculture refers to the production of goods through the growing of plants and fungi and the raising of domesticated Animals The study of agriculture ROOT is an object-oriented program and library developed by CERN. Its low toxicity and well-known properties make it ideal for agriculture. Agriculture refers to the production of goods through the growing of plants and fungi and the raising of domesticated Animals The study of agriculture To a lesser extent, cinnamaldehyde is an effective insecticide, and its scent is also known to repel animals like cats and dogs.

Cinnamaldehyde is also known as a corrosion inhibitor for steel and other ferrous alloys in corrosive fluids. A corrosion inhibitor is a chemical compound that when added to a fluid or gas decreases the corrosion rate of a Metal or an Alloy. Steel is an Alloy consisting mostly of Iron, with a Carbon content between 0 An alloy is a Solid solution or Homogeneous mixture of two or more elements, at least one of which is a Metal, which itself has It can be used in combination with additional components such as dispersing agents, solvents and other surfactants. A solvent is a liquid or gas that dissolves a solid liquid or gaseous Solute, resulting in a Solution. Surfactants are wetting agents that lower the Surface tension of a liquid allowing easier spreading and lower the Interfacial tension between two liquids
Cinnamaldehyde can be used as a food adulterant; powdered beechnut husk aromatized with cinnamaldehyde can be marketed as powdered cinnamon.
