Epsilon-caprolactam
Caprolactam, also known as aminocaproic lactam or hexahydro-2h-azepin-2-one, is a member of the class of compounds known as caprolactams. Caprolactams are cyclic amides of caproic acid. Caproic acid is the carboxylic acid derived from hexane with the general formula C5H11COOH. Caprolactam is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Caprolactam is an amine, bitter, and spicy tasting compound found in sunflower, which makes caprolactam a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Caprolactam (CPL) is an organic compound with the formula (CH2)5C(O)NH. This colourless solid is a lactam (a cyclic amide) of caproic acid. Global demand for this compound is approximately 5 million tons per year, and the vast majority is used to make Nylon 6 filament, fiber, and plastics . Epsilon-caprolactam, also known as Caprolactam or Aminocaproic lactam, is classified as a member of the Caprolactams. Caprolactams are cyclic amides of caproic acid. Caproic acid is the carboxylic acid derived from hexane with the general formula C5H11COOH. Epsilon-caprolactam is considered to be soluble (in water) and relatively neutral. Epsilon-caprolactam is an amine, bitter, and spicy tasting compound found in Sunflowers D000890 - Anti-Infective Agents > D000900 - Anti-Bacterial Agents > D007769 - Lactams
