| Abstract | THE action of nitric acid on strychnine has been the subject of a number of publications' and as a result of which a number of products were isolated of which the simpler ones were identified and the author thought it necessary to attempt a step-wise degradation of Tafel's dinitrostrychnine hydrate LC21H22O3N2 (NO2) 2 .H 20] to obtain an insight into the orientation of the molecule and a definite information regarding the state of combination of the a-carbon of the indole nucleus. The action of aqueous alkali and piperidine on the one hand and the Curtius degradation on the other were contemplated. It seemed that dinitrostrychnine hydrate which has now been named and proved to be dinitrostrychnic acid might suffer hydrolytic fission between N (a) and the aromatic nucleus and thus offer a means of determining whether the carbon attached to N (a) was secondary or tertiary. |
