What is Coumarin?

Coumarin is an organic chemical compound (benzopyrone) and occurs naturally in lavender and other plants. When isolated it is colorless and crystalline and was first synthesized in 1868.

It embues plants with a distinct grassy, sweet aroma and faint vanilla flavour. There have been concerns about coumarin as a potential liver and kidney toxin when ingested.

Coumarin is used in a variety of things:

1) Perfumes
2) Aroma Enhancers
3) Anticoagulants (Coumadin)
4) Rodenticides
5) Fabric Conditioners
6) Food Additive

A molecular model of Coumarin in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
