Metabolite Identification
Common NameBenzyl cinnamate
DescriptionBenzyl cinnamate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cinnamic acid esters. These are compound containing an ester derivative of cinnamic acid. Benzyl cinnamate is a sweet, apricot, and balsam tasting compound. Benzyl cinnamate is found, on average, in the highest concentration within cumins (Cuminum cyminum). This could make benzyl cinnamate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Benzyl cinnamate.
