Abstract
- The non-polar extract of wild 'Maca', Lepidium meyenii Walpers, was investigated.
- Two novel fatty acid amides (macamides), N-(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-hexadecanamide and N-benzyltetracosanamide, were isolated.
- Their structures were established on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, and high resolution mass spectrometry HRESIMS.
- N-(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-hexadecanamide is the first reported macamide with a tri-substituted N-benzylamine ring.
