General description

4-Methyl-5-thiazoleethanol reacts with 4-ethyloctanoyl chloride to yield 4-methyl-5-thiazoleethanol 4-ethyloctanoate, sulfur-containing flavor compound. It was isolated from ether soluble alkaloidal fraction of Panax ginseng.

Application

4-Methyl-5-thiazoleethanol has been used in the synthesis of novel thiazolium halogenide ionic liquids.

Thiamine pyrophosphate is an essential cofactor that is synthesized de novo in Salmonella typhimurium. The biochemical steps and gene products involved in the conversion of aminoimidazole ribotide (AIR), a purine intermediate, to the 4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl pyrimidine (HMP) moiety of thiamine have

The thiamine requirement for growth of Eikenella corrodens was investigated. Autoclaved thiamine at a concentration of 1.0 microgram/ml supported maximal growth whereas for the same growth, filter-sterilized thiamine was required at 50-100 micrograms/ml.
