What is Octyl Methoxycinnamate?
Octyl methoxycinnamate is a natural substance utilized in some sunscreen products, lip balms as well as other charm products to soak up UVB in the sunlight as well as safeguard the skin from its damage. It is the most typically utilized UVB sunscreen agent is a transparent liquid insoluble in water at space temperature.
There is a conjugated large π bond in the molecule of octyl methoxycinnamate. This conjugated structure can be regarded as the core of the benzene ring, one side extends to include the oxygen atom in the substituent methoxy group, and the other side extends to the double bond and ester group in the other substituent. This conjugated structure determines that the substance has the property of absorbing ultraviolet rays. Experiments have revealed that octyl methoxycinnamate can absorb ultraviolet rays in the wavelength range of 280-310nm, and produce maximum absorption at 311nm.
Octyl Methoxycinnamate Uses
- In industry, it can be utilized as anti-aging agent and also ultraviolet absorber of plastics and ink.
- 2-Ethylhexyl 4-Methoxycinnamate is a UV induced inhibitor of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CDP) formation.
- Chromophores, such as C=C, C =O, and also ON =O, have loose electrons excited by radiation. As a result, when the electronic energy level boosts to the ecstatic state, octyl methoxycinnamate can soak up radiation.
- The study evaluated the efficiency of octyl methoxycinnamate in protecting against postoperative peritoneal bonds, and also determined that octyl methoxycinnamate covering the peritoneal surface can lower the development of bonds. This effect is extra considerable when octyl methoxycinnamate is used prior to injury induction.
- Octyl methoxycinnamate is the most common active ingredient in sunscreens, which can resist UV-B rays. It can be combined with oxybenzone and titanium dioxide. It can effectively absorb the ultraviolet ray in the sun, prevent human skin from being sunburnt, sunburnt, and sunburn. It is also a therapeutic drug for photosensitive dermatitis.

Application of Octyl Methoxycinnamate
CN201910955854.8 discloses a trauma spray for children and a preparation method thereof.
Described trauma spray for children consists of 5-chloro-7-(3-hydroxyl-propoxy)-3-nitromethyl-3H-benzoxaborol-1-alcohol, borneol, p- -Made of octyl methoxycinnamate, isopropanol, methyl ethyl ketone, Tween 80, disodium edetate and purified water, in solution form, excellent in promoting traumatic wounds in children, especially hemorrhagic trauma function of wound healing.
CN201210507572.X discloses a sunscreen without emulsifier.
The sunscreen of the present invention uses octocrylene, octyl p-methoxy cinnamate, avobenzone, and promembrane ester to form the basic UV protection system, and is equipped with isododecane/polydimethylsiloxane/ethylene A new type of sunscreen formula is prepared according to the ratio of inactive ingredients such as polydimethylsiloxane cross-linked product, grapefruit essential oil, benzyl alcohol, silica silylate, Inca silver koji oil, and argan tree kernel oil.
The UV protection base system can provide ultraviolet energy resistance when added to other cosmetic formulation carriers. This sunscreen does not add emulsifiers, and has little skin irritation. It can not only effectively block the damage of ultraviolet rays to the skin, but also has waterproof effect. It has good compatibility with foundation and other facial skin care products, and has a silky texture. Refreshing and non-greasy, the makeup feels natural. SPF30~SPF50 sunscreen products are more suitable for Asian people and have broad market prospects.
CN201510735753.1 discloses a preparation method of sunscreen containing microcapsules with post-sun repair function. First, maltodextrin, gum arabic, hydroxyethyl cellulose, coconut oil, sea buckthorn oil, jojoba wax, squalane, vitamin E, alcohol extract of witch hazel, alcohol extract of purslane, paeoniflorin, green tea alcohol extract, L-cysteine and Span 80 are used as raw materials to prepare after-sun repair functional microcapsules; then the microcapsules With coconut oil, lanolin, ethyl alcohol, zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, octyl p-methoxycinnamate, butylmethoxydibenzoylmethane, isooctyl 2-cyano-3,3-diphenylacrylate, vitamin E , deionized water, xanthan gum and Span 20 together as raw materials to prepare the sunscreen.
The invention uses microcapsule technology to embed after-sun repair ingredients and add them into the sunscreen, so that the sunscreen can exert dual effects of sun protection and after-sun repair, effectively avoiding the adverse interaction and competition caused by the coexistence of the two.
Synthesis of Octyl Methoxycinnamate
In a three-necked flask equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer and a reflux condenser, add 12.1 mL (0.1 mol) of p-methoxybenzaldehyde, 12.4 g of malonic acid and 11.3 mL of pyridine, heat and stir to fully dissolve the solid. After stopping the reaction, the reaction solution was poured into a small beaker, allowed to stand, and allowed to cool naturally, crystals were precipitated, recrystallized, washed, filtered and dried to obtain p-methoxycinnamic acid.
Add 8.9 g (0.05 mol) of p-methoxycinnamic acid into a four-neck flask equipped with a stirrer, thermometer, reflux condenser and water separator, and slowly add 13.0 mL of isooctyl alcohol and 30.0 mL of benzene under stirring. Heat over low heat, stirring to dissolve the solids. After the solid was dissolved, 0.2 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid was slowly added dropwise in batches, the temperature was raised slowly, and stirring was maintained at a constant speed, the color of the liquid began to turn yellow. When the temperature reaches 85°C, start to reflux and keep reflux for 5 hours. After the material in the bottle is clarified, keep reflux for another 1 hour until no more water is formed and the reaction ends. Then cool to room temperature, add an appropriate amount of NaHCO3 saturated solution to neutralize, let stand to separate the organic layer, add anhydrous calcium chloride to the organic layer to dry, separate liquid, and distill under reduced pressure to obtain a light yellow liquid of 250 ° C (0.009 1 MPa) fraction. Isooctyl p-methoxycinnamate.
