distillate

The clear, colorless distillate had an alkaline reaction, and an odor resembling henbane or hemlock.

The acid distillate so obtained was freed from a non-poisonous oily substance by shaking the solution with ether.

The clear distillate had a peculiar odor suggesting both tea and amyl formate.

The distillate, in every case, had an ethereal odor suggesting amyl formate in very dilute solution, but was more fragrant.

A small quantity of a finely divided black precipitate separated out from the water distillate on standing.
