Abstract
Abstract Simple procedures for the preparation of pure phyllohydroquinone and phylloquinone are described. Phylloquinone is reduced by sodium dithionite and the reduced vitamin is purified by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. The essential spectral properties of the pure vitamins in ethanol and methanol are cited. The data provide a convenient spectral method for the accurate determination of the absolute concentrations of the oxidized and reduced vitamins and the rates of oxidation of the reduced vitamin. Pure, dry phyllohydroquinone may be safely stored at -70[ddot]C under nitrogen for a period of months. The stability of Phyllohydroquinone in methanol at 25.0 ± 0.1[ddot]C is also reported.
