Cinnamic acid is abundant in plant products and is a potential starting material for further modification, focusing on the development of new antimicrobial compounds. In the following review, we describe the classification of critical antibacterial-guided reactions applied to the main skeleton structure of cinnamic acid derivatives over the last decade. Of all of the main parts of cinnamic acids, the phenyl ring and the carboxylic group significantly affect antibacterial activity. The results presented in the following review can provide valuable insights into considerable features in the organic modification of cinnamic acids related to antibacterial medication development and the food industry. ## Keywords - Cinnamic acid - Antimicrobial - Chemistry - Combinatorial chemistry - Antibacterial activity - Organic chemistry - Bacteria - Biology - Genetics --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
