A Novel Synthesis of Pyridoxal-5′-phosphate

Authors:

Abstract
Pyridoxal-5′-phosphate was synthesized in excellent yield by phosphorylation of 1-secondaryammo-l,3-dihydro-7-hydroxy-6-methyl-furo(3,4-c)pyridine which was readily obtained by a condensation reaction between pyridoxal and a secondary amine.
