Application

trans-Cinnamaldehyde has been used:
  • To synthesize trans-cinnamaldehyde -β-cyclodextrin complex, an antimicrobial edible coating which can increase the shelf life of fresh-cut fruits.

It can be used:
  • As a precursor to synthesize functionalized furans.
  • For the synthesis of hydrocinnamyl alcohol by hydrogenation catalyzed by SBA-15-supported copper–chromium mixed oxide nanoparticles (CuCr/SBA-15).
