Spelling of Capsaicin[change source]

In this article, it seems like two different spellings are used, capsaicin and capsicain (capsicainoids). Can somebody verify which one is the correct one? Is it really called capsacain while the group the substance belongs to, is capsicainoids? If the correct name is "capsaicin", wouldn't the group be "capsaicinoids", not "capsicainoids"?

Thanks for clarifying this and correcting the article, if appropriate! I got really confused, as I even found the spelling "capsicain" in some dictionary online, while here on Wikipedia, "Capsaicin" is used...
