![melting at 71—73°, and was thus found to possess the properties previously ascribed to it. The glucoside could not be separated into modifications of definite melting point as in the case of ceryl- d-glucoside. Tetrab enzoylcetyl-d-glucoside, C16H330*C6H705Bz4.—This deriv¬ ative of cetyl-d-glucoside, not hitherto described, was prepared by heating the glucoside with benzoyl chloride for a few minutes in the presence of pyridine. On adding alcohol and keeping the mixture for some time, the benzoyl compound separated in clusters of silky needles, melting at 65°: 0-0969 gave 0*2600 C02 and 0*0653 H20. C = 73*2; H = 7*3. C50H60O10 requires C = 73*2; H = 7*2 per cent. 0*2380, made up to 20 c.c. with chloroform, gave aD + 0°22/ in a 2-dcm. tube, whence [a]D +15*4°. Tetrabenzoylcetyl-d-glucoside is readily soluble in ether, chloro¬ form, or benzene, but dissolves sparingly in alcohol. The Wellcome Chemical Research Laboratories, London, E.C. I.. li.
