Extract

The difficulty experienced in determining the sulphur contained in the compounds of dimethyl-thetine (described in a former communication) by oxidation to sulphuric acid, induced the authors to study the effects of various oxidising agents on these compounds.

By acting on nitrate of dimethyl-thetine with dilute nitric acid, two bodies are produced. The one has acid properties, and forms a well-marked soluble salt with baryta. The other has neither acid nor basic properties. It crystallises in very beautiful needles from a hot solution in alcohol.
