Abstract
1. The a and β isomer of aniline-N-lactoside were prepared.
2. The mutarotation of them in buffer solutions of pH 5.6 and of pH 7.0 is combined result of hydrolysis and anomerization, and that in a buffer pH 9.6 and 0.01 N NaOH is caused by mere anomerization.
3. The progress of anomerization and hydrolysis is analyzed mathematically.
The expenses of this investigation were defrayed by a grant from the Education Department through the Grant Committee for Scientific Researches. H. Masamune.
