Versuchsvorschrift
The preparation of the several recited choline salts is breifly recited here, though all can be obtained from commercial manufacturers. Choline ascorbate can be prepared from choline and ascorbic acid in methanol according to the procedure set out in U.S. Pat. No. 2,823,166. Choline bicarbonate can be prepared by passing carbon dioxide through a solution of choline until the pH reaction mixture is 9.0 or lower. The mixture is then concentrated and treated with carbon dioxide to pH of 8.5-8.9. Choline bicarbonate is finally isolated by vacuum evaporation of the solution. The preparation of choline chloride can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 2,623,901. Choline and citric acid are combined according to the procedure set out in U.S. Pat. No. 2,774,759 to give choline citrate (tricholinecitrate). Choline dihydrogen citrate, (2-hydroxyethyl)trimethylammonium citrate, is prepared according to the scheme set out in U.S. Pat. No. 2,870,198. The preparation of choline gluconate, the D-gluconic acid salt of choline is given in U.S. Pat. No. 2,691,617.
