DescriptionRiboflavin, also known as lactoflavin or vitamin B2, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as flavins. Flavins are compounds containing a flavin (7,8-dimethyl-benzo[g]pteridine-2,4-dione) moiety, with a structure characterized by an isoalloaxzine tricyclic ring. Riboflavin is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Riboflavin exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Riboflavin is a potentially toxic compound.
