Abstract

The fruits of Rhus javanica L. distributed widely in Korea were extracted with cold water, the filtered clear liquid was evaporated and from the residue large colorless columns, M.P.about 180.deg., were obtained by recrystallisation from hot water. On being incinerated it left a considerable amount of solid residue consisting of calcium. Its aqueous solution which had a strong acid reaction was acidified with sulfuric acid, the precipitate, CaSO$_{4}$, was filtered off, the filtrate was evaporated and from the residue colorless needles, M.P.98-100.deg., were obtained by treating with alcohol. It was identified to be malic acid by determining the mixed melting points of itself and its p-bromphenacylester with authentic specimens. Thus the original substance was proved to be a kind of Ca-salt of malic acid.
