✦ Synopsis

Based on the suggested mechanism of the Raschig catalytic iodine-azide reaction t.he use of azide for the azotometric estimation of sulfenyl iodide groups is proposed. In the Raschig reaction reduction of iodine to iodide and oxidation of azide to elementary nitrogen is specifically catalyzed by bivalent sulfur compounds; the reaction is usually formulated to proceed via hypothetical sulfenyl iodide derivatives. This has been explored with the use of available, relatively stable sulfenyl iodide derivatives. The SI group oxidizes aside to nitrogen stoichiometrically : 1 mole of a sulfenyl iodide consumes 2 moles of sodium azide and yields 3 moles of elementary nitrogen. The specificity and limitations of the method are discussed. 434

## T W O FIGURES Sodiuni azide is known to inhibit a number of reactions involving enzynies (e.g. : Keilin, '33, '36 ; Stannard, '39 ; Armstrong and Fisher, '40). Giese and Fisher (unpublished data) have found that the luminescence of a species of luminous bacteria is depressed by sodium azide and
