Abstract: PHRENOSINIC ACID 711 6.The new evidence presented is fully in keeping with our previous finding as to the composite nature of phrenosinic acid.Klenk & Clarenz's claim that it is pure, or nearly pure a-hydroxy-n-tetracosanoic acid is rejected.We should like to thank Prof. E. Stenhagen (Uppsala) for a sample of synthetic (4+)-m-hydroxy-n-docosanoic acid and Dr J. C. Smith (Oxford) for a sample of synthetic (+)-mhydroxy-n-tetracosanoic acid.We are indebted to Dr T. Malkin for two X-ray analyses (B 504; B 505).
