Evidence is presented that tetrahydrofolate reacts chemically with 2-mercaptoethanol. The resulting product is more stable than tetrahydrofolate itself. The rate of decomposition of this derivative has been investigated. The possible sequences of interaction of tetrahydrofolate with 2-mercaptoethanol are discussed.
