Russian permission has been obtained for research work in the
following fields by the chemical departnio nt of the University
of Leipzig:
au . The electrolytic reduction of the nitric acid and nitrate
ions. Attempts will be made to clarity the role of hyponitric
acid, in the electrolytic reduction of nitric acid.
b~ Electrolytic production of chromic ch.romates. This work is
still in the preparatory stages ? --y
c. The reduction of Brillantgeranin4 Several combination re-
actions in alkaline and acid solutions are being carried out
and the compounds identified and studied.
d. The reaction of para-bromophenylaceti.c acid is being atte=mpted
by vacuum distillation and fractional crystallization.
e. The alcohols and the hydrocarbons of fusel oil distillates.
The hydrocarbons form complex mixtures and are primarily bi-
cyclic, saturated, and very stable. The alcohols are branched
and unbranched mixtures.
.f0 Separation and study of cod-liver oil acids. Attempts are
being made to examine the structu"ti of the weak unstable acids
of cod--liver oil by means of oxidative decomposition using ozone.
ge The oxidation of hydrogen pe?oxide using pervanadine acid as
catalyzer. The effect* of the oxidizing agent on alpha-
phellandren and inden is being examined. The principal Jiro-
