| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
beige crystalline powder | [Physical properties]
White (colorless) crystals. M.P. 74°C.
Very slightly soluble in water, soluble in
alcohol and oils. | [Uses]
Coniferyl alcohol was used as a fungal growth inhibitor. | [Application]
CONIFERYL ALCOHOL can polymerize with weak mineral acids and
certain organic acids, turning into an amorphous, odorless gum.
This chemical could find extensive use as a
fixative and blender in various types of floral,
balsamic and Oriental fragrances. However,
it is not generally available in the state of chemical or olfactory purity desirable to the
perfumer. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A phenylpropanoid that is one of the main monolignols, produced by the reduction of the carboxy functional group in cinnamic acid and the addition of a hydroxy and a methoxy substituent to the aromatic ring. | [General Description]
Coniferyl alcohol is one of the preferred substrate of the eucalpytus globus enzyme. | [Purification Methods]
It is soluble in EtOH and insoluble in H2O. It can, however, be recrystallised from EtOH and distilled in a vacuum. It polymerises in dilute acid. The benzoyl derivative has m 95-96o (from pet ether), and the tosylate has m 66o.
