Abstract

A procedure for the isolation of bufoviridine from skin extracts of the green toad Bufo viridis is described, as well as the properties of the crystalline base. Bufoviridine is shown by elementary analysis and by the study of some of its derivatives to be dihydrobufothionine, viz. the O-sulphate of bufotenine. The general biological interest of the identification in the living organism of O-conjugation derivatives of hydroxyindoles is discussed.
