The scientific name of caffeic acid powder is 3-(3,4-dihydroxy phenyl)-2-acrylic acid. It is a yellow crystal with the molecular formula C9H8O4. It is a phenolic acid compound, a natural active ingredient without risk.

Caffeic acid is generally only soluble in hot water or cold ethanol, ethyl acetate, and other solvents, and only part of the powder can be dissolved in cold water. This product is often a substance that exists in plants, such as coffee, in the form of chlorogenic acid. The solution of ferric chloride will be dark green. Caffeic acid is an active ingredient obtained by the mutual reaction of protocatechuic aldehyde and acetic acid by Baiqin. It can be widely used in the field of cosmetics and is a safe skin care ingredient.

The extraction method of high-quality caffeic acid

Caffeic acid powder is a common phenolic acid compound commonly found in the plant kingdom. The products on the market are mainly derived from lemon peel, cohosh rhizome of Brassicaceae, valerian root, and other plants. Caffeic acid, like ferulic acid, sinapic acid, and p-hydroxycinnamic acid, almost universally exists in plants. Hydroxycinnamic acid is present in the side chain of the molecular structure of these products. It is fluorescent, but at the same time, it is blue fluorescent in most cases.

Bulk caffeine acid powder can be extracted from methanol by using the rhizome of single spike cohosh as raw material, and then the step of de-methanol concentration is performed under reduced pressure, and then the residue is heated with water to dissolve it. After cooling, benzene is added for extraction. The benzene solution can be washed with 1% sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution, and then the washing liquid is collected, and then dilute hydrochloric acid is added for acidification. The organic acid is freed from benzene, and finally, the benzene is removed by concentrating under reduced pressure. The residue left in this way is the enriched product of caffeic acid. In addition to this, this product can also be prepared by reacting protocatechuic aldehyde and acetic acid with Baiqin.

Properties and Stability of Caffeic Acid

1. The properties of this product are extremely stable under normal temperature and pressure.

2. It can exist in tobacco leaves and smoke.

3. Its alkaline solution generally turns from yellow to orange.
