Abstract
WITH reference to the letter of Dr. Qudrat-i-Khuda in NATURE of August 24, we wish to state that in this laboratory, the synthesis of the 1-carboxy-4-methyl-cyclohexane-1-acetic acids from the dicyano ester prepared from 4-methylcyclohexanone by Higson and Thorpe's method, led only to a pair of isomerides melting at 137° and 173° respectively. These acids proved identical with the acids previously obtained by oxidation of the isomeric-keto-4-methylcyclo-hexane-l:l-diacetic acids with hydrogen peroxide.
