6,7-Dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine

Description:

6,7-Dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine is a chemical compound that plays a significant role in the biosynthesis of riboflavin (vitamin B2) in various organisms, particularly in bacteria and fungi. It is a lumazine derivative, characterized by its bicyclic structure that includes a pyrimidine and a ribityl side chain. The compound is known for its yellow color, which is typical of many riboflavin precursors. Its molecular structure features two methyl groups at the 6 and 7 positions, contributing to its unique properties and reactivity. 6,7-Dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine is soluble in water and exhibits moderate stability under standard conditions, although it can be sensitive to light and heat, which may lead to degradation. This compound is essential in the study of vitamin biosynthesis pathways and has implications in microbiology and biochemistry, particularly in understanding metabolic processes related to vitamin production. Its CAS number, 2535-20-8, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
