Abstract
Neher and Wettstein1 have used a solution of antimony trichloride in organic solvent to identify certain steroids on paper chromatograms. Although Jaminet2 has used an acetic anhydride solution of antimony trichloride for the spectrophotometric identification of cardiac glycosides, he has not reported its use with paper chromatograms. Work in this laboratory has shown that antimony trichloride may be successfully applied to this field.
