Excerpt from Year-Book of Pharmacy: Comprising Abstracts of Papers Relating to Pharmacy, Materia Medica, and Chemistry Contributed to British and Foreign Journals, From July 1, 1876, to June 30, 1877; With the Transactions of the British Pharmaceutical Conference
There can be no longer any reasonable doubt that the reported conversion of brucine into strychnine by the action of dilute nitric acid was an illusion; for as such it must appear in the absence of evidence to the contrary from the results of experiments on this subject conducted by imr. A. J. Cownley, and more recently by Mr. W. A. Shenstone. In both reports attention is drawn to the facility with which traces of strychnine and brucine are destroyed by dilute nitric acid, an important point in forensic investigations. A new process for the detection of these and other poisonous alkaloids in analyses of this kind is recommended by Prof. Dragendorff its chief feature consisting in the application of benzol and petroleum ether' as solvents.
