May, 1941 ium nitrate was added and the solution gently refluxed. The color of the solution changed quickly from pale yellow to orange, at the end of one minute. The solution was refluxed thirty minutes longer and diluted with cold water. The red precipitate was collected and recrystallized from 80% acetic acid; yield, 0.35 g. of isatin, melting a t 199”. A mixed melting point with pure synthetic isatin’ showed no depression.

Quaternary Morpholonium Salts1 The Estimation of Primary Carbinol Groups in Carbohydrates BY MARTINE. MCGREAL AND JOSEPH B. NIEDERL

Invert Soaps.

Since none of the previously reported2 "invert soaps" contain a mixed heterocyclic radical i t was thought desirable to prepare and study invert soaps containing a sulfur-nitrogen (long chain ethers of thiazoline phenols),Sor an oxygen-nitrogen heterocyclic ring. For the latter purpose N-tertiary morpholines were chosen as starting materials. N-Ethyl- and N-ethylol-morpholine were converted into N-long chain substituted quaternary morpholonium salts upon treatment with lauryl, myristyl and cetyl bromide, respectively. All the resulting quaternary ammonium salts, which possess the structure as given below, proved to be soluble in water. CHLCH'
