In the first paper read before this Society “ On some New Bases of the Leucoline Series,” and published in the Society's “ Transactions,” it was stated that amongst other methods proposed for separating the members of the series and identifying the higher bases, was the process of converting the mixed bases into methyl-iodide compounds by digesting them with the iodide at a high temperature, and separating by fractional crystallisation the bodies so produced. It was found, however, that repeated crystallisation of these bodies could not be effected without great risk of their decomposition. This process was, therefore, abandoned in favour of fractional distillation.
