Abstract

It is shown that in alkaline medium thiamine (TA) results in H2O2 decomposition rate decrease, but in acidic medium inhibits H2O2 decomposition catalyzed by Fe(II) cations, which occurs mainly by radical-chain mechanism. In our early works it was established that in alkaline medium ap­proximately 16% of H2O2 is being decayed with radical formation. So, TA mainly acts in alkaline medium on the rate of H2O2 decomposition, which occurs by radical mechanism. TA·HCl also inhibits the cumene initiated auto­oxi­da­tion, which occurs by radical-chain mecha­nism with degenerated bran­ching. During autooxidation R and ROO free radicals are formed. It is assumed that TA, as well TA·HCl effectively react with free radicals R and ROO.
