Infra-red spectra of the redox products of Vitamin K1 (VK1) were obtained in order to acquire information on the positions of their characteristic bands. We have investigated the reduction processes of VK1 in acetonitrile containing 0.2 M Bu4NPF6 as the supporting electrolyte with an amalgamation of...
