STRECKER (Liebig’s Ann., cxxx, p. 220) states that silver 
nitrate produces in alcoholic solutions of valeralammonia, a 
white precipitate, which slowly turns black in the cold, but he 
says nothing as to the composition of the substance. I have 
obtained what is doubtless the same compound by the spon- 
taneous evaporation of alcoholic ammonia solutions of valeral- 
ammonia to which an excess of silver nitrate had been added. 
and then adding thirty grams of hydrous valeralammonia, from
