Expert Verdict
DATA GAP: The methylene group warrants scrutiny as a potential electrophilic center for skin sensitization. Dihydrocinnamyl (saturated) esters are generally safer than their unsaturated cinnamyl analogs. Recommend supplier tox dossier, in vitro sensitization battery, and confirmation of CAS/structural identity before CPSR finalization.
