Cinnamyl chloride ( trans -3-phenylallyl chloride ) is one of the aromatics with a trans -substituted carbon-carbon double bond in the side chain. It is an allyl chloride substituted with a phenyl group . It is not to be confused with Cinnam o ylchlorid , the cinnamic acid chloride . The isomeric cis- cinnamyl chloride is of little importance. The information in this article relates only to trans -cinnamyl chloride.
Extraction and presentation
Cinnamyl chloride can be obtained by reacting cinnamyl alcohol and thionyl chloride or hydrochloric acid .
