Lipoamide is a trivial name for 6,8-dithiooctanoic amide. It is the functional form of lipoic acid, i.e the carboxyl group is attached to protein via an amine with an amide linkage.[1] Illustrative of the biochemical role of lipoamide is in the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl lipoamide.[2]

Lipoamide is found in a large number of plant and animal-based foods.[1]
