Abstract
The free menthol content of peppermint oil is determined by refluxing a sample of oil with chloroacetyl chloride. Hydrogen chloride, a by-product of the reaction, is carried over into a solution of standard silver nitrate with the aid of nitrogen gas. Excess silver nitrate is determined with standard ammonium thiocyanate.
