Description

for synthesis

Linear Formula: C6H5CH=CHCOOH

Cinnamic acids compose a relatively large family of organic acids which appear to have antibacterial, antifungal and antiparasitic activities. They are also used in macromolecular synthesis as very important building blocks for various classes of polymers, having attractive properties, especially a high photoreactivity due to the presence, in the main or side chains, of the cinnamoyl group, well known as photoresponsive unit. Polymers containing cinnamoyl moieties are used in a wide range of applications in emerging fields such as advanced microelectronics, photolithography, non-linear-optical materials, integrated circuit technology and photocurable coatings.
