Abstract
DONAXINE1, C11H14N2 is according to von Euler, Erdtman and Hellström2, identical with gramine from certain strains of barley, and according to a paper by Th. Wieland and Chi Yi Hsing3, to which my attention has just been directed, gramine has the constitution of (-dimethylaminomethyl-indole, (CH3)2NCH2.C8H6N.
