Cannabis Compound Identification
Common NameButyroamide
DescriptionButyroamide or Butyramide, also known as N-butanamide, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty acid amides. These are carboxylic acid amide derivatives of fatty acids, that are formed from a fatty acid and an amine. Thus, butyramide is an amide of butyric acid. Butyramide is a crystalline solid at room temperature and is a nutty tasting compound. In contrast to butyric acid, it has no unpleasant or rancid smell. Butyramide can be found in cheeses. It has been shown to inhibit DNA synthesis in hepatoma cells and exhibit various growth inhibitory effects (PMID: 8476205 ). Butyramide is a constituent of cannabis smoke and is formed during the combustion of cannabis ( Ref:DOI ).
