A sample of commercial *;-grain guaiacol carbonate tablets was prepared by pulverizing twenty tablets, the average weight of each being 0.3865 g. or 3.R(i grains. Three-tenths gram samples were analyzed according to the method for mixtures, with the check results 75.53 and 75.3fi(r0. The average content, therefore, was 4.50 grains instead of the declared 5 grains.

Summary X new method for the estimation of guaiacol carbonate, depending on the conversion of guaiacol carbonate into a monobromo derivative, and a new compound, monobromo guaiacol carbonate, are described.
