A Preliminary Note on the Anesthetic Properties of Certain Unsaturated Ethers.*

(London) San Francisco, Calif.

Abstract

AS FAR as the general inhalation anesthetics are concerned there has not yet been a systematic effort to determine whether or not there is any relation between chemical constitution and physiological action by the chemical synthesis and pharmacological study of a relatively large series of related compounds. The chlorinated methanes (chloroform and carbon-tetra-chlorid), the alkyl ethers (methyl-ethyl ether, and di-ethyl ether), and the unsaturated hydrocarbons (ethylene, acetylene, and propylene) suggests the possibility of work along this line.
