Abstract
ALTHOUGH most phenols are known to be partially excreted as the corresponding sulphate esters, few arylsulphuric acids have actually been isolated from urine, mainly because of the great solubility of the compounds and their sodium and potassium salts. The p-toluidine1 and p-bromoaniline2 salts are less soluble and can be used to isolate arylsulphates after some preliminary purification of the urine3, but are not very satisfactory when the arylsulphates are present in small amounts.
