Dissolved in the cell sap of the leaf epidermis of various plants, there occurs a substance which is coloured blue by iodine, and which is known to botanists as ‘‘ soluble starch.” This substance has been isolated from Scqonaricc o&cinaZis, and is a glucoside; the name eaponarin is suggested for it. Suponarin crystallises in microscopic needles melting at 231-232O, and having the composition C21H24012,2H20.The glucoside dissolves in alkalis with a yellow colour, gives with ferric chloride a reddish- brown coloration, and with iodine a substance closely resembling that formed from starch. Ennea-acetyl saponarin, C2,HI,0,,(C,H,0),, melts at 183--185O and crystallises in needles. Acids hydrolyse saponarin, thus : C21H24012 + H2° =c6H1206 +C15H1407, yielding glucose and vitexin, a colouring matter obtained by A. G. Perkin from a New Zealand dye wood (Trans., 1898, 73, 1030, and 1900, 77, 41 6). At the same time another colouring matter is formed, apparently isomeric with vitexin, or closely related to it, for which the name saponaretin is suggested. Vitexin and saponaretin both yield phloro- glucinol and p-hydroxyacetophenone on boiling with caustic potash.Molecular weight determinations of vitexin and of acetyl vitexin prove that Perkin’s formula, C21H20010, must be changed to C15H140,. Vitexin differs therefore from apigenin by two molecules of water, and probably is a flavanone derivative containing either a reduced pyrone ring or a reduced phloroglucinol nucleus. It would be a represent,ative of a new class of colouring matters to which scoparin, which Perkin regards as methoxy-vitexin, would also belong. DISCUSSION. The PRESIDENTasked whether the new glucoside was widely dis- tributed in the vegetable kingdom, and whether it was contained in any considerable quantity in any particular plant. He: also asked whether the isomeride of vitexin was, in the author’s opinion, to be regarded as a natural product, or whether it resulted from the isomerisation of vitexin during the hydrolysis of the glucoside.He considered that Dr. Barger had satisfactorily established the identity of the product of hydrolysis of his glucoside with vitexin, and that 195 he had also established the formula of the latter compound. He con-sidered that the author had made an important contribution to plant chemistry. Mr. GRANTHOOPERsaid that in the microscopic examination of vegetable substance, traces of what had hitherto been regarded as soluble starch were not infrequently observed. He would like to know whether Dr. Barger had detected and identified the interesting gluco- side which he had just shown them in substances other than those from which he had isolated the new compound.Dr. BARGER,in reply, said that saponarin, which is optically active, occurs in about twenty plants ; one of the richest of these, namely, Saponaria, contains less than 1 per cent. of the weight of dry leaves. Saponaretin is a product of secondary decomposition ; vitexin is formed from the pure glucoside. "133 '(The constitution of umbellulone." By Frank Tutin. The ketone, umbellulone, was isolated from the essential oil of UmbelZuZaria Californica by Power and Lees (Truns., 1904, 85, 629), who showed it to possess the formula C,,H1,O. The behaviour of umbellulone towards certain reagents was further studied by Lees (Truns., 1904, 85, 639), and its investigation has been continued by the present author.Umbellulone, on oxidation, yields a saturated keto-acid, CgH140, (m. p. 102O), called zLmbe2ZuZonic acid, which, on distillation under suitable conditions, is partially converted into an unsaturated Zactone, CgHl,O, (b. p. 217-220"). This lactone, on hydrolysis, yields um-bellulonic acid, and is produced by the elimination of water from the enolic modification of the keto-acid. On oxidation, a poly-methylene dicarboxylic acid, um6elZuZaric acid, C,H,,O, (m. p. 120-1 21"), is obtained, which is remarkably stable. By the bromination of umbellulone, and subsequent distillation of the products, p-cymene was obtained, together with substances con- taining bromine. It would therefore appear that the molecule of umbellulone has a structure capable of yielding this hydrocarbon without undergoing any profound change.The only formulae which offer a satisfactory explanation of the behaviour of umbellulone on oxidation and on bromination are the following : CH,-FH-CO CH,--CH--COI1 ..., C11e2 I I /CH,.CH(W 1 CHQC( 31~)-CH CII-C( Me) IZ U€I I. TI. 196 Both these substances, through the rupture of the bridge by the addition of hydrogen at the point indicated by the dotted line, would give compounds capable of yielding 2)-cymene. Formula I represents a keto-pinene, which would yield, on oxidation, cz dimethylte tra- methylene dicarboxylic acid, identical or stereoisomeric with the norpic acid obtained by the oxidation of pinene. On the other liandt the compound represented by formula I1 worild yield 1-methylpentu-methylene 3 :5-dicxrboxylic acid.It is considered most probnble that formula TI represents the con- stitution of umbellulone. DISCUSSION. DR.POWERcongratulated Mr. Tutin on the accomplishment of this excellent work. He thought the evidence brought forward was so complete as to leave no doubt respecting the correctness of the con- stitutional formula assigned to uinbellulone by Mr. Tutin. It was of interest to note that only one other ketone possessing the same em- pirical formula as umbellulone, namely, carvonc, had been observed to oecur in nature, but this had a very different constitution. “134. “The action of ethyl iodide and of propyl iodide on the disodium derivative of diacetylacetone.” By Alexander William Bain. As the result of the action of ethyl iodide on the disodinm deiivatiw of diacetylacetone, suspended in alcohol, the following substances have been obtained : (1) Dimethyldiethglpyrone, CllH1602(m.1). 64’). (2> Dimethylethylpyrone, C,HI,O, (m.p. 5s’). Each forms a hydrochloride and a platinichloi-ide. (3) Diethyldiacetylacetone, C,,HI,O,. (4) A compound, C,H,,O, (m. p. 66-67’, t). p. 28!J0), i3oimric 0 Me(f&\y:CH2 with dirilethylethylpyrone, to which the formula Et-C\\hlCH2 is ascribed. This compound on boiling with concentrated hydrochloric acid yields dimethylethylpyrone hydrochloride, and by the action of sodium hydroxide solution is changed into an orcinol derivative, By the action of propyl iodide on the disodium derivative of diacetyl-acetone, the author has obtained dimethylpropylpyrone, C,,H,,O,, and also an isomeric substance which possesses similar properties to the corresponding ethyl compound, 135.possible source of error in Stas’s nitrogen ratios.” By Robert Whytlaw Gray. Stas’s higher value for the atomic weight of nitrogen is supported by very little evidence. Not only do the researches oE Rayleigh, Leduc, D. Berthelot, Guye, and the author confirm the lower value, but an indirect comparison of the atomic weights of nitrogen and silver from the results of Marignxc, Scott, and Richards leads to the same result. By assuming similar errors in the ratio Ag :NH,CI and Ag :NH,Er of Stas as those found for the ratio Ag :NaCl by Richards and Wells, the value for nitrogen deduced is 14.011.The possible sources of error in the other ratios are discussed. 136. I‘ Electrolytic oxidation.” By Herbert Drake Law. On oxidising benzoin by the electrolytic method, three products are formed, namely, benzil, benzaldehyde, and benzoic acid, as shown by the following equations : In addition to these, however, a certain amount of tarry matter is always obtained. This formation of complex tarry matter is a property of high potential discharge at the anode, and always takes place in the case of unsaturated compounds. The amount of any of these products which is formed is influenced very largely by the conditions of the ex- periment.Thus, strongly acid solutions promote the formation of tar, but none is observed when the anodic discharge is kept low. Similar experiments conducted with compounds resembling benzoin gave results agreeing with the above. Thus, cuminoin on being oxidised electro- lytically forms cumic acid, cuminol, and tar. Furoin forms furil and tar, benzfuroin gives benzoic acid and tar, whilst anisoin and piperonyloin yield nothing but complex resinous matter of unknown conJtitution. 137. “The ethyl esters of acetonyloxalic and acids and the action of ethyl oxalate on acetanilide and its homologues.” By Siegfried Ruhemann. The research was suggested by a note of Claisen’s (Ber., 1891, 24, 128) that ethyl sodioacetonyloxalate, on boiling with glacial acetic acid, yielded the sodium compound possessing the empirical formula C',H,O,Na.This is violet, as is the substance which Ruhemann and Merriman (Frccns., 1905, 8'7, 1383) obtained in the course of their investigation on the reaction between phenylpropiolyl chloride and sodioacetylacetone. The compounds which are produced by the con- densation of aromatic aldehydes with the ethyl esters of acetonyloxalic and acetophonyloxalic acids react with aniline and its homologues to yield yellow substances, which are constituted according to the type : Me*CO*F]H-$l: N*Ph Ph*CH*O*CO With the object of ascertaining whether a relationship exists between these yellow substances and xanthoxalsnil, which W. Wislicenus and Sattler (Bey., 1891, 24, 1245) obtained, although in an impure form, from acetanilide and ethyl oxalate, the author has repeated the experiments of these chemists and has prepared xanth- oxalanil in a pure state by crystallisstion from nitrobenzene; its constitntion is expressed by the formula Similar compounds have been prepared by using, instead of acetanilide, aceto-p-toluidide (see Wislicenus and Sattler, Zoc.cit.), aceto-o-toluidide, and aceto-a-nnphthalide. These substances differ from each other, especially in colour and solubility. Xanthoxalanil is deep orange and sparingly soluble in nitrobenzene, xanthoxalo-p- toluidide, C,,H,,O,N,, is lighter in shade and more soluble, whilst the corresponding ortho-compound is canary-yellow and readily dissolves in this solvent ;finally, xanthoxalo-a-naphthylanil,C,8H,,0,N,, is also yellow, but dissolves in glacial acetic acid.138. '' An oxidation product of indigotin." By Arthur George Perkin. It has been shown by Sommargua (AnnaZen, 1879, 195, 305) that, on sublimation under reduced pressure, refined natural indigo yields pure indigotin ; again, Bloxam (Trams., 1905, 8'7,982) has found that this is the case with the commercial synthetical product. With limited access of air, however, pure indigotin and also these commercial varieties give a small quantity of a yellow sublimate which cryst,al- lises in needles, m. p. 258--2593, is very sparingly soluble in alcohol, and can be distilled without appreciable loss. It appears to have the formula C15H802N2(Found, C = 72.59 ; H =3.17 ; N = 11.59 per cent.), is very resistant to acid oxidising agents, but on boiling with strong potassium hydrate solution gives anthranilic acid.When treated in boiling glacial acetic acid solution with hydriodic acid, an unstable hydriodide, forming colourless, prismatic needles (Found, N = 199 1-42 per cent.), is produced; this, on treatment with water, splits off hydriodic acid and is reconverted into the substance C1,H,02N, ; it is therefore probably the salt of an unstable reduction product of the latter. On reduction with tin and hydrochloric acid, a compound, C,,H,,ON, (Fmnd, C = 76.33 ;H =5.34 ; N = 11.88 per cent.), crystnl- lising in colourless needles, m. p. 190-193°, is formed, which on oxidation is reconverted into the substance C,,H,O,N,.A trace of indole is also formed during the reduction. By the prolonged action of hydriodic acid, a compound crystallising in yellow needles, m. p. 200--203°, is produced, which can also be reoxidised to the original product. The author hopes to devise a better method for preparing this yellow compound, as hitherto, with much labour, only 8 grains of the pure substance could be obtained from 2 lb. of indigo. 139. ''Indigo- yellow." By Arthur George Perkin. In a previous communication (Proc., 1904, 20,1'72) it was shown that the jellow colouring matter usually present in Java indigo is kampherol. Examination has now shown that it is derived from a glucoside present in the leaves of the Java and Natal indigo plants (Indi.gofei*a aimrecta), which is probably hydrolysed during the fermentation process, The material employed was chiefly the air- dried Natal leaf.This glucoside, for which the name Xampheritrim is proposed, has the formula C27H30014 (Found, after being dried at loo', C = 56-00 ; H =5.27 per cent.) ; the air-dried substance contains 34 mols. of water (Found, H,O =9-70 per cent.). It crystallises in colourless needles, which are sparingly soluble in water, is very nearly devoid of tinctorial properties, and, when heated, congeals together at 190-192O and melts at 201--203'. It is hydrolysed by acids according to the equation C,7H,,01, +48,O =C,,H,,O, +2C,H1,0, into kampherol (Found, C1,H,,O6 =49.19 per cent.) and rhamnose, identified by means of its osazone.Analyses of the kampherol thus obtained, m. p. 275-277" (Found, C = 63.01 ;H =3.68 per cent.), and its acetyl compound, m. p. 181' (Found, C =60.77 ; H = 4.43 per cent.), were made for purposes of confirmation. By the method employed, 1.5 per cent. of the glucoside was isolated, but considerably more of this is really present, as 2 per cent. of an impure kampherol contaminated with a reddish-brown substance, probably the so-called '' indigo-brown," could be obtained by hydrolysing the aqueous extract of the leaf. 200 140. ('1 :3-Diphenylbarbituric acid and some coloured derivatives. Synthesis of 1 :3-diphenyluric acid." By Martha Annie Whiteley. 1 :3-Diphenylbarbituric acid, CO<Nph.Co>CHz, prepared by heat-NPh*CO ing malonyl chloride and carbanilide or malonic acid, phosphorus oxychloride and carbanilide in chloroform solution, forms colourless, prismatic needles and melts at 238' ; the dimethyl derivative, crystallises in colourless needles, melts at 230°, and sublimes at a slightly higher temperature ;the isonitroso-derivative (diphenylvioluric NPh*CO, NHacid)*Co<Nph.Cl> <A , crystallises in colourless needles, melts and decomposes at 22'7', and yields the red or violet salts characteristic of this type of compound ;the potassium, aniline, and piperidine salts were prepared ;the acetyl derivative, C1,H,,,O,N,*OAc, crystallises in colourless prisms and melts at 245'.1 :3-Diphenyl-5-aminoburbituric acid (1 :3-diphenylurarniZ), obtained by reducing diphenylvioluric acid, forms colourless crystals, melts and decomposes at 195', and condenses with potassium cyanate to form 1: 3-diphenyE+-uric acid, which crystallises in colourless prisms, melts and decomposes at 217", and on boiling with hydrochloric acid yields 1:3-diphenyluric acid, ~Ph-Co*fi*NH>CO, which crystallises in colourless needles, softens CO*NPh*C*NH at 23S0, but does not melt at 306', 1 :3-Diphenylbarbituric acid condenses readily with aromatic alde- hydes or diazonium chlorides, and the resulting compounds are of a bright yellow or orange colour.5-Benxylidene-l :3-diphenylbarbituric acid, CO<NPh,co>C:CHPh, forms pale yellow, prismatic needles NPh*CO from most of the ordinary solvents, crystallises from acetone or ethyl acetate in a mixture of colourless aud yellow needles, each form melting sharply at 214O, and yielding on r+eduction 5-benxyl-1 :3-di-phenylbarbituric acid ; 5-cinnamylidene-l :3-diphe ny I barbituric acid, forms bright yellow needles and melts and decomposes at 268'.1 : 3 -Diphenylalloxanphenylhydrazone, Co<;;;:g>C:N*NHPh, forms bright yellow needles and melts and decomposes at 264'; 201 1 ; 3-dipi~enylalloxan-p-nitrophenylhydrazone, forms well-developed orange prisms and melts at 274'; 1 : 3-diphenyl-alloxanbenzyl- p-nitrophen ylhydraxone, NPh*CO CH,*Ph 'O<NPh CO>'<X N*C6H4*N0, NPh*Co>C?:N*N<, CH *Ph .NO,' from 5-benzyl-1 : S-diphenyl-Or "O<NPh*CO 6 4 barbituric acid and diazotised p-nitraniline, crystallises in beautiful yellow prisms and melts and decomposes at 180".

"The alkylation of rhamnose." By Thomas Purdie and Charles Robert Young. By complete methylation with silver oxide and methyl iodide, acetone- and met hyl-rhamnosides yield respectively dimethyl acetone-rhamnoside and trinaethgl methylrhamnoside, and by hydrolysing these compounds di-and ti%-methylrhamnose respectively are obtained. Tha rhamnose derivatives described are liquids, but, all of them excepting dimethyl rhamnose being volatile without decomposition, it was possible to isolate them by fractional distillation under reduced pressure.Dimethyl-and trimethyl-rhamnose give crystalline phenylhydr- azones, and display the ordinary properties of reducing sugars. Trimethyl rhamnose is reconverted into trimethyl methylrhamnoside by condensation with methyl alcohol and also by the silver oxide method of alkylation ; the former process gives mainly the a-form of the aldoside, the latter a mixture composed largely of the p-form. The presence of the P-isomeride was recognised not only by its rotatory power, but also by the rapidity of its hydrolysis. The rotatory powers of the substances described fall into line with those of glucose and its corresponding derivatives.142. The alkylation of I-arabinose." By Thomas Purdie and Robert Evstafieff Rose. By rnethylating Fischer's a-methylarabinoside with silver oxide and methyl iodide, trimethyl a-methylarabinoside is obtained in large, well- formed crystals (m. p. 43-45O), and by hydrolysing this with dilute 202 hydrochloiic acid trimethyll arabinose is produced. This substance is a liquid (b. p. 148-1552’, 19 mm.), but otherwise it exhibits the usual properties of a reducing sugar. It can be methylated by condensation with methyl alcohol, and also by treatment with methyl iodide and silver oxide, the product in both cases being a mixture of the isomeric trimethyl methylarabinosides. The condensation process yields the crystalline a-isomeride in large proportion, the silver oxide process mainly the P-isomeride.The latter substance is apparently a liquid and it could not be isolated, but its presence in the mixture was re- cognised by its undergoing hydrolysis more rapidly than the isomeric a-form. In preparing Fischer’s a-methylarabinoside, a small quantity of the P-methylarabinoside was obtained in crsytslline prisms melting at 115-117’. With respect to rotatory power, the isomeric methylarabinosides and trimethyl methylarabinosides show relations similar to those of the corresponding derivatives of d-glucose. 143. ‘I The esters of triacetic lactone and triacetic acid.” By Foster Sproxton. Ethyl ti-iucetate, Me*CO*CH,*CO*CH,*CO,Et,is formed by heating triacetic lactone with dry alcohol in sealed tubes, and may be obtained pure by decomposing its copper salt with sulphuretted hydrogen.It gives a deep red coloration with ferric chloride. The ethyl and methyl salts of triacetic lactone have been prepared by the action of ethyl and methyl iodides on the silver salt of the lactone. The ethyl ester could not be obtained in the pure condition. Like the analogous esters of dehydracetic acid, they have an acid reaction in aqueous solution. This property has been shown to be due, in both the triacetic lactone and dehydracetic acid derivatives, to partial hydrolysis of the esters by water. Complete hydrolysis takes place on boiling, and the parent lactone can be recovered from the solut,ion. 144.“Optically active reduced naphthoic acids. Part 11. The resolution of the tetrahydronaphthoic acids.” By Robert Howson Pickard and Joseph Pates. 1 :2 :3 : 4-Tetrahydro-1-naphthoicacid and 1:2 :3 :4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoic acid h?ve each been resolved into their optical antipodes by the fractional cry stallisation from acetone of the I-menthylamine salts. The laevo-isomeride of the first has [MI. -28.1’ in chloroform and -92.1’ in benzene, that of the second having [MI, -91.2’ in chloro- 203 form and -87.9" in benzene. The sodium salts when dissolved in water have respectively [MID-21.1' and -90.5'. 145. "The velocity of chemical change in the pentamethylen series." By N. Menschutkin, sen. The general results of the study of the velocity of chemical change in polymethylene derivatives are as follows : (1) The formation of the closed polymethylene chain from an open saturated chain of normal structure proceeds with increase of velocity.The maximum increase occurs in the formation of the pentamethylene ring; in the case of the hexamethylene ring the increase is less, and the heptamethylene ring is formed with the minimum increase of velocity. (2) The increase of velocity at the closing of the open chain is not a specific property of the polymethylene ring, but is a general phen- omenon observed in the formation of all closed chains, alicyclic and heterocyclic. (3) The constants of velocity decrease according as the number of methylene groups in the polymethylene rings increases.The decrease is of the same order as is observed in the houiologous series of open chain saturated carbon compounds of normal structure. (4) The secondary polymet hylene alcohols, in which the hydroxyl group is attached to the carbon atom of the ring, are typical secondary alcohols. Their esterification constants are higher than those of the saturated secondary alcohols of normal structure. Hence, the poly- methylene alcohols give higher constants than all of the secondary alcohols studied. The constants of the derivatives of cyclopentanol are the highest ; cyclohexanol gives much lower values, and cyclo-. heptanol still less. (5) The side chain combined with thr? carbon atom united with the hydroxyl group gives rise to the formation of the polymethylene tertiary alcohols. Their esterification constants are very low, but esterification proceeds regularly ; this is not the case with saturated tertiary alcohols, but is characteristic of phenols.(6) When the side chains are in the ortho- and diortho-positions, a great decrease in the esterification constants is observed. This effect, commonly ascribed to the benzene ring alone, is a general property of all classes of chains whether open or closed, and containing carbon or other elements. (7) When the side chain is in the position 3 or 4 of the poly- methylene ring, an increase of esterification constants is observed, so much so that in the hexamethylene series the value of the constant of the first member of the series is exceeded.(8) This property is not confined to the polymethylene ring, but applies generally to ringed systems, alicyclic and heterocyclic. As open chain compounds show no such increase of velocity, this is an important character of the closed chains. (9) When a hexamethylene ring is introduced into the open chain of an alcohol, the decrease of the esterification constant is much more than is effected by the benzene ring. (10) Hexamethylene, like hexane, exerts a very considerable retard- ing influence when used as a solvent in these reactions. 146. (4 Hydrolysis of ammonium salts by water.” By Ernest (jieorge Hill. The author aspirated a measured volume of air through solutions of different ammonium salts, the strengths of the solutions being normal, fifth-normal, and twenty-fifth-normal. The ammonia passing over was absorbed in water, or, when the amount was large, in acid.In the first case, the ammonia was estimated from the conductivity of the solution; in the latter case, by titration. It was found that for strong CAcid x CBnseacids the equation --_.= K, and for weak acids CSalt CAcid x CBase = K-_ C2Salt holds good for the concentrations of salt used. The constants obtained in the case of the salts of mono-basic acids are inversely proportional to the molecular conductivities of the acids, and agree well with the values obtained for the strength of the acids by the various dynamical methods. In the case of dibasic acids, the constants are irregular.It is shown that the constant must depend on both the .first and second ionisation-coefficients of the acids. The author described the method employed for estimating ammonia by taking the resistanceof its solution in conductivity water and com- paring this with the resistance curve of ammonia. The method gave good results with solutions containing from 0.00027 to 0.009 per cent. 147. 6‘ The addition of alkyl halides to alkylated sugars and gluco-sides.” By James Colquhoun Irvine and Agnes IvIarion Moodie. When solutions of the equilibrium mixture of tetramethyl glucose in ordinary organic solvents are cooled from + 20’ to -2O”, the specific rotations undergo very little alteration, and, on re-heating to the initial temperature, the values originally found for the rotatory powers are exactly duplicated. When, however, an alkyl halide is used as solvent, the specific rotation at first increases slightly with fall of temperature 205 and then rapidly diminishes on further cooling.On re-heating the cooled solution to 20°, distinct downward multi-rotation was observed before the initial value was reached. The same regularities were shown by solutions of molecular proportions of the sugar and alkyl halides 01: hydrogen chloride in carbon tetrachloride. The results point to the formation, during cooling, of oxonium com- pounds of the sugar with alkyl halides, and the a-form of the aldose appears to be more reactive than the P-isomeride. This was shown by a cycle of changes in specific rotation observed in the case of a solution in isopropyl iodide which had been cooled from 20' to Oo: (a) rapid decrease at Oo, due to oxonium formation; (b) subsequent upward multi-rotation at Oo, owing to the partial conversion, /3 -+ a, in the uncombined sugar; (c) on re-heating to 20°, owing to dissocia- tion of the oxonium compound, a rapid increase at constant tempera- ture took place, followed by (d) downward multi-rotation at 20' to the initial value.Tetramethyl a-methylglucoside also behaves abnormally when cooled in ethyl iodide solution, but the P-isomeride gives no indication of addition of the solvent. Comparable results were obtained with tetramethyl mannose and tetramethyl a-methylmannoside, but non-alkylated sugars or glucosides, when examined in mixtures of methyl alcohol and alkyl iodides, gave negative results.The following notes have been received since the meeting : 148. '' Note on the preparation of ethyl acetonedicarboxylate." By Ernest Ormerod. In attemp t,ing to prepare ethyl acetonedicarboxylate, on fractionat- ing the crude ester prepared by the method described by v. Pechmann (Annulen, 1891, 261, 160) under reduced pressure, only a small quantity of volatile material was obtained, which on examination proved to be principally acetoacetic ester. The main product, which on cooling solidified to a white, crystalline mass, was ethylorcintri-carboxylate. Wolfman and v. Pechmann (Ber., 1898, 31, 2014) have shown that ethyl orcintricarboxyla te is formed if an alcoholic solution of acetonedi- carboxylic acid saturated with hydrogen chloride is allowed to stand for two or three weeks, and it was at first thought possible that the con- densation had been brought about in this way during the preparation, but on examination it was found that the crude ester contained only a very small quantity of the orcinol derivative. It appeared very strange that the condensation should take place so readily, as according to Jerdan (Trans., 1899, 73,808) the pure ester may be heated at 180' 206 for a considerable time without any condensation taking place.Finally it wasfound that the condensation was brought about by the presence of a small quantity of calcium chloride which had been dissolved by the alcohol-ethereal solution of the ester.This view was shown to be cor- rect by the fact that if the pure ester be heated with a trace of calcium chloride at 180” for a short time the amount of orcinol derivative formed corresponds to 4 per cent. of the theoretical. If the ethereal solution of the crude ester is dried over fused sodium sulphate, it may be distilled under reduced pressure without any condensation taking place. During an attempt to prepare pure methyl acetonedicarboxylatc, Dootson (Trans., 1900, 74, 1196) obtained a crude product which, on distillation under reduced pressure, condensed very readily to form methyl orcintricarboxylate, and he came to the conclusion that the methyl ester cannot be distilled without this condensation taking place.It seems improbable that the methyl ester should differ in this respect from the ethyl ester, and, although Dootson does not state how the ethereal solution was dried, it is probable that the crude ester contained some inorganic substance which promoted the condensation. 149. “The interaction of nitroformazyl, carbon bisulphide, and potass- ium hydroxide. A contribution to the chemistry of the thio- biazalones and the xanthates.” By Ernest Ormerod. The peculiar position of the nitro-group in nitroformazyl confers on this compound very abnormal properties : thus, by the interaction of nitroformazyl, carbon hisulphide, and potassium hydroxide, three com- pounds are obtained : Ph*?-$and 1-phenyZ-3-ccxop?~enyZ-cs-c *N,*Pil.2-thiocixiethan9, The three compounds are formed in varying quantities, depending on the solvent used and the conditions under which the experiment is carried out.Using alcohol as solvent, at the ordinary temperature the monothio biaznlone is almost exclusively formed, whilst if the interac- tion takes place at higher temperatures all three compounds are pro- duced simultaneously; on using a,cetone olr carbon bisulphide as the solvent, only the dithiobiazalone is formed. The results obtained are interesting, as proving that a boiling alcoholic solution of carbon bisulphide and potassium hydroxide con- tai ns potassium xant ha te, potassium dit hiocar bonat e, and potassium trithiocarbonate. The author finds that the nitroformazyl is first reduced to formazyl- mercaptan, which is then acted on by the potassium xanthate, forming the dithiobiazalone, and by the potassium dithiocarbonste, forming the monothiobiazalone.The thioaziethane is apparently produced by the interaction of the potassium trithiocarbonate and the nitroformazyl. The constitution of the biazalones obtained was proved by an examination of their decomposition products and by synthesis : the di- Ihiobiazalone mas syn thesised from formazylmercaptan and thiophos- gene, and the monothiobiazalone from formazylmercaptan and phosgene. 150. Aldehydrol and the hydrates of compounds containing a carbonyl group." By William Morris Colles. Concentrated aqueous solutions of aldehyde, acetone, formic, acetic, monochloroacetic, and trichloroacetic acids were cooled to low tempera- tures in an apparatus fitted with a combined filtering and stirring tube, The solutions, made up quantitatively in definite molecular propor- tions, were contained in a long, stoppered weighing tube into which the combined filtering and stirring tube fitted. This in turn was clamped inside a large vacuum vessel containing absolute alcohol, which, when cooled by liquid air, constituted the freezing mixture. Cooling was brought about very gradually and the solutions were very rapidly stirred.Several crystalline hydrates were obtained, the mother liquor being separated as soon as crystallisation had occurred. The following compounds of special interest were obtained : aldehydrol, CH,CH(OH),, at -go", a hydro1 of formic acid, possibly ortho-formic acid, HC(@H)3, ortho-acetic acid, CH,C( OH),, and ortho-monochloroacetic acid, CH,CIC(OH),.The analyses of the last two compounds, owing to experimental difficulties, were not very close. Acetone gave no result, and with trichloroacetic acid a hydrate containing 3 mols. of water was obtained. The hydrates of formic acid were fairly thoroughly investigated, and the following were obtained in a fairly pure crys- talline condition : CH20,,4H20, 4CH20,,7H,0, 40H,0,,3H20, 3CH202,2H20. 208 The next Ordinary Meeting will be held on Thursday, October 18th, 1906, at 8.30 pm., when the Longstaff Medal will be presented to Prof. W.N.
