ABSTRACT:
Lithium ribonate and lithium arabonate are novel compounds by means of which ribonic acid, required as an intermediate for the synthesis of riboflavin (vitamin B.sub.2), or its salts, can be prepared particularly advantageously. The great advantages of the synthesis of ribonic acid are that, surprisingly, mixtures of lithium ribonate and lithium arabonate in aqueous solution can be exceptionally successfully separated into their components be fractional crystallization, and that the desired lithium ribonate, which is the less soluble salt and crystallizes out first, can be isolated in a very pure form. The solution which remains and which in the main contains lithium arabonate can be inexpensively re-epimerized.
