Methyl cinnamate, an active component of Zanthoxylum armatum , is a widely used natural flavor compound with antimicrobial and tyrosinase inhibitor activities. However, the underlying bioactivity and molecular mechanisms of methyl cinnamate on adipocyte function and metabolism remain unclear. The

The urinary mercapturic acid excretion by female rats of methyl atropate (alpha-phenyl methyl acrylate) and methyl cinnamate (beta-phenyl methyl acrylate) has been studied. On the basis of the structures of these mercapturic acids the conclusion can be drawn that these
K Shimoi et al.

UV-induced mutagenesis in Escherichia coli B/r WP2 was enhanced by certain derivatives of methyl cinnamate which themselves were not mutagenic. Methyl ferulate, methyl isoferulate and methyl sinapate showed this effect markedly. Such an enhancement effect was absent with the derivatives
Kathrin Fink et al.
Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 52(10), 3065-3068 (2004-05-13)
For the authenticity assessment of (E)-methyl cinnamate from different origins, combustion/pyrolysis-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (C/P-IRMS) was used by an elemental analyzer (EA) and on-line capillary gas chromatography coupling (HRGC-C/P-IRMS). For that reason, (E)-methyl cinnamate self-prepared from synthetic, natural, and semisynthetic
