Abstract
Normal- and pseudo-Dihydrothiamine were oxidized by various organic and inorganic oxidants having high redox-potential. normal- and pseudo-Dihydrothiamine were oxidized by the dyes having the redox potentials higher than +0.40, +0.36, and 0.23 V at pH 2.2, 5.0, and 7.0 respectively. The absolute yield of thiamine produced by the oxidation of dihydrothiamine was about 50% under the experimental conditions described in this paper.Keywords
