3,J^-Met}iyleneoxyhenzal-^-anisidine, CHg : O2 : CgllgCII :- 

 !N^C6H40CH3. The condensation of piperonal with p-anisidine 

 is carried out exactly as that of vanillin with p-anisidine. The 

 product crystallizes well from ligroin or benzeae. The crystals 

 are very pale yellow needles, which separate in feathery groups. 

 Melting point, 117.5° (cor.). 



The experimental work here described was carried out by Mr. 

 L. E. Stacy, Jr., and Mr. L. B. Rhodes and I wish to thank 

 them for their careful work.
