Conclusions
1. On the basis of literature data on the structure of theVeratrum alkaloids, a definite law for the arrangement of the acyl radicals in these ester alkaloids and an interrelationship between the melting point and the structure of the substituent in the C7 position, and between the melting point and the types of amino alcohols upon which the ester alkaloids are based, has been found.
2. The features mentioned may be used in studying the structure of theVeratrum ester alkaloids according to a scheme which we propose.
