Anyone Tried Cinnamyl-Piracetam?

I heard that cinnamon oil (cinnamaldehyde) reacts with piracetam and makes cinnamyl-piracetam. Supposedly this makes it completely different.
Have any of you tried this? If so, how does it compare to regular piracetam?

I'm tempted to try a larger-scale synthesis of this. I have a hot plate with magnetic stirrer, and plenty of piracetam. There's reagent-grade cinnamaldehyde for sale in half-liter bottles at the same price as 30mL cinnamon bark extracts.
I'm seeing in the article you found (where did you find that, by the way? I'm trying to up my research game) that they used a cold alcohol wash and then hot-alcohol recrystallization to purify the product. I would presume this would with piracetam, as well?

I assume the alcohol wash/recystalization would work for a cinnamyl-piracetam as well. It will be interesting to see how it works for you!
