Abstract
The author communicates in this memoir the continuation of his researches, a preliminary announcement of which appeared several years ago, upon a new series of organic compounds closely allied to cacodyl in their composition and properties, and which, like that body, are formed by the union of the alcohol radicals with various metals, and are distinguished for their powerful electro-positive character. These remarkable compounds are procured by the action of heat or light upon their proximate constituents, and are thus distinguished from most other organic compounds of this nature by the manner of their formation. The author describes seven of these compounds.
