Methyl trans-cinnamate is a compound that dissolves well in alcohols, ether, and benzene, but has limited solubility in water. It acts as an inhibitor of the c. glabrata polymerase chain reaction by binding to the enzyme and curbing its catalytic function, thereby hindering DNA synthesis. The compound also exhibits notable thermal expansion characteristics, making it suitable for inclusion in polymeric materials like polyurethanes, polyesters, and polyamides. In scientific research, Methyl trans-cinnamate serves multiple roles, including as a precursor for synthesizing other chemicals and as a standard reference substance in analytical chemistry. Methyl trans-cinnamate can be used to inhibit monophenolase and diphenolase activity of mushroom tyrosinase. It has antimicrobial activity.
