What
is Thiamine HCl? Thiamine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of
thiamine, otherwise known as vitamin B1. Upon hydrolysis, thiamine
hydrochloride is phosphorylated by thiamine diphosphokinase to form active
thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), also known as cocarboxylase. TPP is a coenzyme
for many enzymatic activities involving fatty acid, amino acid and carbohydrate
metabolism.
Production
of Thiamine HCl A method for the chemical synthesis of thiamine consists
of separate syntheses of 4-amino-5-bromomethyl-2-methylpyrimidine hydrobromide
and of the thiazole moiety or its acetate. Condensation of the two intermediate
heterocycles gives thiamine bromide hydrobromide which is converted to thiamine
chloride hydrochloride by treatment with silver chloride in methanol or with an
ion-exchange resin.
Sources
of Thiamine Thiamine
is found in a wide variety of processed and whole foods. Whole grains, legumes,
pork, fruits, and yeast are rich sources.
