    Author: Ochi T, Takaishi Y, Kogure K, Yamauti I.
    Journal: J Nat Prod; 2003 Aug; 66(8):1094-6. PubMed ID: 12932131.
    Abstract:
    A new capsaicin derivative, 6' ',7' '-dihydro-5',5' "-dicapsaicin (1), and a known capsaicin metabolite, omega-hydroxycapsaicin (2),(1) were isolated from the fruit of Capsicum annuum. Their structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic evidence. Compound 1 showed almost the same antioxidant activity as capsaicin, but did not have a pungent taste.
