8 M. Berzelius 07t Oxichlorides with Compound Radicals. 



\ at. of acetic acid ... = 4 C-1- 6 H -fS O 



2 at. of acetic chloride = 8 0+12 H+12 CI. 



(A- CiHSQ^and ACF = C^H^ CP) A+A CP = 12 C+18 H+12 Cl+3 O 



which contains three times the number of simple atoms, in 

 the formula of M. Malaguti = C^ W Cl^ O. 



2. SidpJiuretted cotJier, C^ H^ S" O, contains, in tripling the 

 number of simple atoms, 



1 at. of acetic acid = 4C+6H +30 



2 at. of acetic sulphuret = 8C+12H + 6S 



(AS^ = A) A + ^A = 12C+ 18H + 6S+30. 



3. Chlorosulphwetted cether^ = C'* H® S CP O, the number 

 of simple atoms being multiplied by 6, contains two atoms of 

 acetic acid, two atoms of acetic sulphate, and two atoms of acetic 

 chloride, which may be represented by the combination of an 

 atom of No. 1. and an atom of 



No. 2 = (A + 2 A) + (A + 2 A CF). 



It is probable that in treating the acetic oxichloride (No. 1) 

 by sulphuret of lead, we shall obtain No. 2 or No. 3, as the 

 decomposition may be more or less complete ; just as when 



Bz C13 + Bz (Bz = Q}^ h^o) 

 is treated by sulphuret of lead, we obtain Bz -f- 2 Bz. 



4. Chlorinated acetic cether^ CP H** C^^ O*, gives, on multi- 

 plying the number of simple atoms by 1|, 



2 at. of acetic acid ... = 8 C + 12 H + 60 



1 at. of acetic chloride = 4C-1- 6H+6C1 



AC1-H2A= 12C + 18H4- 6C1 + 60 



This combination is proportional to those of sulphur, chro- 

 mium, molybdenum, tungsten, and benzoyle, with chlorine 

 and oxygen. 



5. Chlorinated formic cether^ C^ H' CP O^ of which if we 

 triple the number of atoms gives 



2 at. of formic acid = 4 C+ 4 H +60 



1 at. of formic chloride = 2 C+ 2 H+ 6 CI 



2 at. of acetic acid = 8 C+12 H+ -f 6 O 



1 at. of acetic chloride ...= 4 C+ 6 H+ 6 CI 



F=C3H2) (FCl'+2F)+(ACl'-f2 A =18 C+24 H-t-12Cl4-I2 O
