Key Word Index: Capsicum annuum L.; Structure of New Capsaicinoids. AbstractA detailed study of the pungent principle of Capsicum annuurn L. var. annuurn allowed the detection and structure determination of two isomers of homocapsaicin and homodihydrocapsaicin, respectively. The vanillylamides of caprylic acid and decylic acid were isolated and characterized by means of mass-and H-NMR-spectra. The presence of bishomo-and trishomocapsai-. cin was detected by accurate mass-measurernents.
