Sb CoH1s, H20=(SbCsH1:, H)O, and SbC.H1« is equivalent 
forms-an acid nitrate of stibethine. Sulphur, chlorine and _bro- 
mine combine directly with stibethyl, yielding compounds which 
have all the characters of salts of stibethine and may be form 
_ by double decomposition from the salts of the oxyd. Stibethyl 
even decomposes strong hydrochloric acid, evolving hydrogen to 
form a chlorid which is also produced by the action of a metallic 
chlorid upon the nitrate of stibethine ; its composition is that of © 
an acid salt, SbCsH:s, 2HCl = SbC-.H: 4, Cl, HCl. It reacts 
like a chlorid of potassium or sodium with metallic solutions, and 
forms with sulphuric acid a sulphate with disengagement of | 
hydrochloric gas
