Caffeic acid Specification

 Caffeic acid , its cas register number is 331-39-5. It also can be called 3,4-Dihydroxycinnamic acid ; 3,4-Dihydroxybenzeneacrylic acid ; and 3-(3,4-Dihydroxy phenyl)-2-propenoic acid . It is a naturally occurring organic compound, and is found in all plants because it is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of lignin. It is hazardous, so the first aid measures and others should be known. Such as: When on the skin: first, should flush skin with plenty of water immediately for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly, get medical aid. Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Then get medical aid soon. While, it's inhaled: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. Give artificial respiration while not breathing. When breathing is difficult, give oxygen. And as soon as to get medical aid. Then you have the ingesting of the product: Wash mouth out with water, and get medical aid immediately.
In addition, Caffeic acid (CAS NO.331-39-5) could be stable under normal temperatures and pressures. It is not compatible with strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, strong bases, and you must not take it with incompatible materials. And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide.
