Niacinamide is a nutrient and dietary supplement that is an available form of niacin. Nicotinic acid is pyridine beta-carboxylic acid and nicotinamide, which is another term for niacinamide, is the corresponding amide. It is a powder of good water solubility, having a solubility of 1 g in 1 ml of water. Unlike niacin, it has a bitter taste; the taste is masked in the encapsulated form. Used in fortification of cereals, snack foods, and powdered beverages. | [CAS DataBase Reference]

White powder. | [Reactivity Profile]
An amine and amide. Acts as a weak base in solution. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides. Organic amides/imides react with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed by the reaction of organic amides/imides with strong reducing agents. Amides are very weak bases (weaker than water). Imides are less basic yet and in fact react with strong bases to form salts. That is, they can react as acids. Mixing amides with dehydrating agents such as P2O5 or SOCl2 generates the corresponding nitrile. The combustion of these compounds generates mixed oxides of nitrogen (NOx). | [Air & Water Reactions]

Gaseous ammonia was passed into nicotinic acid at a temperature between
200-235°C until the conversion to nicotinamide was 85%. The reaction
mixture was colored light brown. The reaction mass was cooled and grounds
to a fine powder. Fifty grams of this crude nicotinamide were boiled with 500
ml of anhydrous ethyl acetate until a dark solution was. obtained. A little solid remained in suspension. Gaseous ammonia was passed in below the surface
of the ethyl acetate at a temperature between 60-70°C. After a short time
ammonium nicotinate started to precipitate out of solution as a brown solid.
Sufficient gaseous ammonia, was passed into the ethyl acetate solution to
insure complete precipitation of the nicotinic acids as ammonium nicotinate.
The solution was filtered at about 60-70°C. The filter cake consisted of
ammonium nicotinate, which, upon drying, weighed 12.4 grams. The filtrate
was stirred arid boiled for 20 minutes with one-half gram of activated carbon
and two grams of activated adsorbent clay. The mixture was filtered hot. The
filtrate was boiled twenty minutes with one-half gram of activated carbon and
two grams of activated adsorbent clay and then filtered hot. The carbon and
clay treatment was repeated once more. The final filtrate was cooled slowly
with stirring to room temperature to precipitate white crystalline nieocinamide
which, upon drying, weighed 26.7 grams and had a melting point of 129.5°C,
and was over 99 percent pure. The mother liquor from the above filtration
was boiled down to one-third of its volume and cooled to room temperature. A
second crop of nicotinamide of three grams was obtained. | [Therapeutic Function]
Enzyme cofactor vitamin | [benefits]
Niacinamide is a multipurpose skin care ingredient. It helps build keratin, a protein that maintains skin health.
1. Niacinamide may enhance the function of skin’s lipid barrier (a layer of water and oil that protects your skin). This helps lock moisture in and keep pollutants or other potential irritants out.
2. Niacinamide has been shown to ease inflammation, which can help calm redness due to conditions like acne, rosacea and eczema. It can also soothe irritation caused by strong exfoliants like retinol or glycolic acid.
3. Niacinamide may help minimize pore's appearance by helping keep your skin smooth and clear. It also may help regulate the amount of oil your glands produce, which can prevent breakouts and clogged pores.
4. Oral nicotinamide supplements may help prevent new skin cancer or precancerous spots from developing in some people.
5. Some research suggests skin care formulas with 5% niacinamide can also help lighten dark spots.

Nicotinamide is an amide derivative of vitamin B3 and a PARP inhibitor | [Clinical Use]
Niacin is used in the treatment of niacin deficiency, which is referred to as pellagra (from the Italian, pelle for “skin” and agra for “dry”). The major systems affected are the gastrointestinal tract (diarrhea, enteritis and stomatitis), the skin (dermatitis), and the CNS (generalized neurological deficits including dementia). Pellagra has become a rare condition in the United States and other countries that require or encourage enrichment of wheat flour or fortification of cereals with niacin. Because the nucleotide form can be synthesized in vivo from tryptophan, pellagra is most often seen in areas where the diet is deficient in both niacin and tryptophan. Typically, maize (corn)-based diets meet this criteria. Niacin deficiency can also result from diarrhea, cirrhosis, alcoholism, or Hartnup disease. It is interesting that niacin deficiency can also, rarely, result from vitamin B6 deficiency (see Vitamin B6 section). Niacin, but not niacinamide, is also one of the few vitamins that are useful in the treatment of diseases unrelated to deficiencies. | [Metabolism]
Nicotinamide is ingested in food as part of pyridine nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) in plant and animal tissues. After the co?enzymes have separated, nicotinamide is absorbed almost completely in the small intestine. After absorption, nicotinamide is stored as NAD in the liver and excretion occurs via kidneys. Tryptophan is converted to nicotinamide through kynurenine?anthranilate pathway in the liver. Tryptophan can thus satisfy the requirement for dietary nicotinic acid. | [storage]

| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [description]
Nicotinamide aka Vitamin B3 (niacinamide, nicotinic acid amide) is the pyridine 3 carboxylic acid amide form of niacin. It is a water‑soluble vitamin that is not stored in the body. The main source of vitamin in diet is in the form of nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, and tryptophan. The main source of niacin include meat, liver, green leafy vegetables, wheat, oat, palm kernel oil, legumes, yeast, mushrooms, nuts, milk, fish, tea, and coffee.
The recommended daily dose of vitamin B3 in niacin equivalent is given in Table 1.
Nicotinamide is a component of coenzyme I (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NADP) and coenzyme II (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, NADP). The nicotinamide part of these two coenzyme structures in human body has reversible hydrogenation and dehydrogenation characteristics, It plays a hydrogen transfer role in biological oxidation, can promote tissue respiration, biological oxidation process and metabolism, and is of great significance to maintain the integrity of normal tissues, especially skin, digestive tract and nervous system. When lacking, pellagra is caused by the influence of cell respiration and metabolism. | [Chemical Properties]

| [Uses]
Nicotinamide is a water-soluble B complex vitamin which is naturally present in animal products, whole cereals and legumes. Together with nicotinic acid (niacin), it belongs to vitamin B3 or vitamin PP, and is required as a nutrient to prevent the niacin deficiency disorder pellagra. It functions as a coenzyme or cosubstrate in many biological reduction and oxidation reactions required for energy metabolism in mammalian systems. It is used as a nutritional supplement, therapeutic agent, skin and hair conditioning agent in cosmetics, and a constituent of consumer household solvent and cleaning products and paints. Nicotinamide is approved for use by the FDA as a food additive to enrich corn meal, farina, rice, and macaroni and noodle products. It is also affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) by the FDA as a direct human food ingredient which includes its use in infant formula. It is approved for use in pesticide products applied to growing crops only as a synergist with a maximum limitation of 0.5% of formulation. | [Toxicity]
