Synthesis of Benzyl Cinnamate The esterification method and the condensation method are mainly employed: The esterification method is obtained by neutralizing sodium cinnamate as a raw material and then esterifying with chlorotoluene. The condensation method is obtained by condensation reaction using benzyl acetate and benzaldehyde as raw materials. Natural matter extraction method: The natural substance extraction method is obtained by extracting benzyl cinnamate present in Peru balsam, tolu balsam and benzoin by extraction. Direct esterification of cinnamic acid and benzyl alcohol: transesterification using benzyl alcohol and methyl cinnamate: method of interaction between sodium cinnamate and benzyl chloride: Claisen condensation by benzyl acetate and benzoic acid.
