Phenylpropene is the organic compound with the formula C6H5CH2CH=CH2. It is a colorless liquid. The compound consists of a phenyl group attached to allyl. Phenylpropene isomerizes to trans-propenylbenzene.[1]
In plant biochemistry, the phenylpropene skeleton is the parent (simplest representation) of the phenylpropanoids. Prominent derivatives include eugenol, safrole, and many others.[2]
