Aromatic Carboxylic Acid Esters at Landmark

Carboxylic acids is a homologous series in which the compounds contain a functional group called the carboxyl group (-COOH), and they are the most common type of organic acid.  The general molecular formula for carboxylic acids is CnH2n+1COOH. Carboxylic acids contain at least one carboxyl group. Aromatic carboxylic acids contain at least one aromatic ring, examples: benzoic acid. 

A carboxylic acid ester is an ester derived from a carboxylic acid, which has the following general structural formula.


R1 = H, alkyl, aryl
R2 = alkyl, aryl


e.g.:
The O=C—O group in a carboxylic acid ester is called the carboxylic acid ester group.
Aromatic carboxylic acid esters are the most common esters in organic chemistry.  The term ester used without a qualifier usually means a carboxylic acid ester and the term ester group a carboxylic acid ester group.

Fragrance or Flavor Odor Type Listing

Fragrance and flavor substances are comparatively strong-smelling organic compounds with characteristic, usually pleasant odors. The odors of single chemical compounds are extremely difficult to describe unequivocally. The odors of complex mixtures are often impossible to describe unless one of the components is so characteristic that it largely determines the odor or flavor of the composition. Although an objective classification is not possible, an odor can be described by adjectives such as flowery, fruity, woody, or hay-like, which relate the fragrances to natural or other known products with similar odors. Such as, Pure ethyl cinnamate has a fruity and balsamic odor. A few terms used to describe odors are listed below: Aldehydic odor note of the long-chain fatty aldehydes, e.g., fatty-sweaty, ironed laundry, seawater Animal(ic) typical notes from the animal kingdom, e.g., musk, castoreum, skatole, civet, ambergris Ba...

Its boiling point is at 236 °C, flash point at 109 °C. It is soluble in ethanol, propylene glycol and most of the non-volatile oil...

Isoamyl p-Methoxycinnamate - A Highly Protective Sunscreen Agent

Isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate (CAS No. 71617-10-2) is a natural compound that absorbs ultraviolet (UV) light and it is found in the roots of the Indian Galangal plant, a member of the Ginger family. Commercially, it is prepared from Cinnamic acid which is found in the leaves of the cinnamon tree, and is chemically identical to the naturally occurring molecule. How does Isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate work as a sunscreen agent? Isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate is mainly made of a fabric with a certain sunscreen effect. The principle of sun protection is mainly occlusion, and it does not have a good effect on ultraviolet rays of a specific wavelength such as UVA. UVA band, wavelength 320 ~ 420nm, also known as long-wave black spot effect ultraviolet light. It has a strong penetrating power and can penetrate most transparent glass and plastic. More than 98% of the long-wave ultraviolet rays contained in sunlight can penetrate the ozone layer and the cloud layer to reach the surface of the earth...
