[Antivitamin activity of O-acyloxythiamine disulfides].

: B1-antivitamin activity of symmetrical oxythiamine disulphide esters with succinic and o-phthalic acids has been studied in experiments on albino mice. It is shown that O-acyloxythiamine disulphides exert more profound and prolonged inhibitory effect on the transketolase activity in the animal body in comparison with the known antagonist of vitamin B1, oxythiamine, and the initial oxythiamine disulphide.
