✦ Synopsis

with dianiline gossypol obtained by condensing gossypol with aniline. Upon hydrolysis of aniline D gossypol a substance was obtained which was identical both chemically and physiologically with analytically pure gossypol. These facts render untenable the hypothesis that D gossypol is an oxidation or hydrolytic derivative of gossypol. It has been suggested that in the cooking and pressing process to which cotton seeds are subjected in the manufacture of cotton seed oil the gossypol present in the seeds is bound by condensing with free amino groups of the seed proteins, forming substances similar in type to dianiline gossypol.
