Metabolite Identification
Common Nametrans-Cinnamic acid
DescriptionCinnamic acid has the formula C6H5CHCHCOOH and is an odorless white crystalline acid, which is slightly soluble in water. It has a melting point of 133 degrees and a boiling point of 300 degrees. Cinnamic acid has a honey-like odor and its more volatile ethyl ester (ethyl cinnamate) are flavor components in the essential oil of cinnamon. It is involved in E. coli's aromatic compound metabolism and 3-phenylpropanoate degradation. Cinnamic acid is also part of the biosynthetic shikimate and phenylpropanoid pathways. Its biosynthesis is performed by the action of the enzyme phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) on phenylalanine.
