Common Namen-benzyloctadecanimidic acid
DescriptionMacamide belongs to the class of organic compounds known as n-acyl amines. N-acyl amines are compounds containing a fatty acid moiety linked to an amine group through an ester linkage. Thus, macamide is considered to be a fatty amide. n-benzyloctadecanimidic acid is found in Lepidium meyenii. n-benzyloctadecanimidic acid was first documented in 2021 (PMID: 34606547). Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Macamide (PMID: 35566104) (PMID: 35190953) (PMID: 35026191) (PMID: 34604630).
