IN view of the facts that (1) hexuronic acid is the name of a class of substances rather than that of one individual compound, and that (2) the material described as hexuronic acid isolated from adrenal cortex and now from Paprika contains a molecule of water less than is required for a hexuronic acid, we wish to ascribe the name ascorbic acid to the crystalline substance C6H8O6 which has been the subject of earlier communications from our laboratories.
