Abstract
Benzaldiphenyl-hydroxyethyl amine, obtained by the action of benzaldehyde under the presence of alcoholic potash on phenylalanine, tyrosine, glutamic acid, leucine and alanine, was hydrolized to diphenylhydroxyethyl amine. Normal and iso-derivatives of the latter were determined and transition of normal to iso-compd. was made clear. The compound obtained by Rabe, Hartung and Corrab is the normal compd.
