Summary

  1. 1.

    Methyl-2∶3∶4-trihydroxy benzoate was formylated by the action of hexamethylene-tetramine in glacial acetic acid and methyl-2∶3∶4-trihydroxy-5-formyl benzoate was obtained. Several derivatives of the formyl ester were prepared and the structure established.

  2. 2.

    Formylation of several hydroxy compounds was also attempted.
