Page 31 - ... heated four or five hours at 170°. The gas which escaped on opening the tubes was found to contain no methyl chloride. The excess of acid was driven off on the water bath, and the residue distilled with plumbic hydrate until the distillate was no longer alkaline. The ammoniacal distillate was caught in hydrochloric acid, and evaporated to dryness on the water bath. The residue was treated with a small quantity of absolute alcohol, and the filtered solution again evaporated to dryness. There...
Page 74 - Special care must be taken that the temperature of the liquid does not exceed 10° C.
Page 158 - ... from a funnel, the neck of which is drawn out into a fine tube, so that two layers are formed. The whole is allowed to stand at the ordinary temperature, till after some little time the liquid becomes homogeneous. The contents of several (six) such cylinders are slowly evaporated on...
Page 102 - The distilling flask is now attached to a long condenser and heated on the water-bath. The ether, which distils, still contains traces of alcohol and water, which it obstinately retains and from which it can only be freed by a further treatment with metallic sodium. A few very thin slices of sodium are dropped into the receiver and the vessel closed with a cork, through which...
Page 61 - ... decomposition taking place. This liquid was then redistilled near the same temperature. The liquid base thus prepared has a curious smell closely resembling that of Bewad's triethylhydroxylamine. Its general properties agree very closely with the diethyl- and dipropyl-hydroxylamines. It is soluble in water and miscible in all proportions with alcohol and ether ; the aqueous solution is strongly alkaline to litmus, and fumes in contact with hydrochloric acid. It reacts with solutions of copper...
