Capsaicin ( (INN); 8-methyl-''N''-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) is an active component of chili peppers, which are plants belonging to the genus ''Capsicum''. It is an irritant for mammals, including humans, and produces a sensation of burning in any tissue with which it comes into contact. Capsaicin and several related compounds are called capsaicinoids and are produced as secondary metabolites by chili peppers, probably as deterrents against certain mammals and fungi.〔(What Made Chili Peppers So Spicy? ) Talk of the Nation, 15 August 2008.〕 Pure capsaicin is a volatile, hydrophobic, colorless, odorless, crystalline to waxy compound.
==History==
The compound was first extracted in impure form in 1816 by Christian Friedrich Bucholz (1770–1818).〔History of early research on capsaicin:
* Harvey W. Felter and John U. Lloyd, ''King's American Dispensatory'' (Cincinnati, Ohio: Ohio Valley Co., 1898), vol. 1, page 435. Available on-line at: (Henriette's Herbal ).
* Andrew G. Du Mez, "A century of the United States pharmocopoeia 1820-1920. I. The galenical oleoresins" (Ph.D. dissertation, University of Wisconsin, 1917), pages 111-132. Available on-line at: ( Archive.org ).
* C. F. Bucholz (1816) "Chemische Untersuchung der trockenen reifen spanischen Pfeffers" (investigation of dry, ripe Spanish peppers ), ''Almanach oder Taschenbuch für Scheidekünstler und Apotheker'' (Weimar) (or Pocket-book for Analysts (Chemists) and Apothecaries ), vol. 37, pages 1-30. ( Christian Friedrich Bucholz's surname has been variously spelled as "Bucholz", "Bucholtz", or "Buchholz". )
* The results of Bucholz's and Braconnot's analyses of ''Capsicum annuum'' appear in: Jonathan Pereira, ''The Elements of Materia Medica and Therapeutics'', 3rd U.S. ed. (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: Blanchard and Lea, 1854), vol. 2, (page 506 ).
* Biographical information about Christian Friedrich Bucholz is available in: Hugh J. Rose, Henry J. Rose, and Thomas Wright, ed.s, ''A New General Biographical Dictionary'' (London, England: 1857), vol. 5, (page 186 ).

* Some other early investigators who also extracted the active component of peppers:

John Clough Thresh (1850–1932), who had isolated capsaicin in almost pure form,〔In a series of articles, J. C. Thresh obtained capsaicin in almost pure form:

Sc., and D.P.H.," ) ''The British Medical Journal'', vol. 1, no. 3726, pages 1057-1058 (4 June 1932).〕 gave it the name "capsaicin" in 1876.〔J King, H Wickes Felter, J Uri Lloyd (1905) A King's American Dispensatory. Eclectic Medical Publications (ISBN 1888483024)〕 Karl Micko isolated capsaicin in its pure form in 1898.〔Karl Micko (1898) ("Zur Kenntniss des Capsaïcins" ) (On our knowledge of capsaicin), ''Zeitschrift für Untersuchung der Nahrungs- und Genussmittel'' (Journal for the Investigation of Necessities and Luxuries), vol. 1, pages 818-829. See also: Karl Micko (1899) ("Über den wirksamen Bestandtheil des Cayennespfeffers" ) (On the active component of Cayenne pepper), ''Zeitschrift für Untersuchung der Nahrungs- und Genussmittel'', vol. 2, pages 411-412.〕 Capsaicin's chemical composition was first determined by E. K. Nelson in 1919, who also partially elucidated capsaicin's chemical structure.〔E. K. Nelson. ("The constitution of capsaicin, the pungent principle of capsicum". ) ''J. Am. Chem. Soc.'' 1919; 41: 1115–1121. doi 10.1021/ja02228a011〕 Capsaicin was first synthesized in 1930 by E. Spath and S. F. Darling.〔Ernst Späth, Stephen F. Darling. "Synthese des Capsaicins." ''Chem. Ber.'' 1930; 63B: 737–743.〕 In 1961, similar substances were isolated from chili peppers by the Japanese chemists S. Kosuge and Y. Inagaki, who named them capsaicinoids.〔S Kosuge, Y Inagaki, H Okumura (1961). Studies on the pungent principles of red pepper. Part VIII. On the chemical constitutions of the pungent principles.

See (springerlink.com )〕 stated that "capsicol" (partially purified capsaicin〔F.A. Flückiger, ''Pharmakognosie des Pflanzenreiches'' ( Berlin, Germany: Gaertner's Verlagsbuchhandlung, 1891).〕) caused the burning feeling when in contact with mucous membranes and increased secretion of gastric acid.
