Their experiments show that methanol, commonly known as wood alcohol, and hydroxyl react rapidly at –210 degrees Celsius to form methoxy, which has also been spotted in space.

The actual constitutional relationships of these main groups, as well as the localization of the methoxy groups, are still problematical.

Cinchonine has the formula C19H22N2O, quinine being methoxy cinchonine, i.e.

This, however, is not difficult, and we need only call to mind that the lignocelluloses are characterised by the presence of methoxy groups and a residue which is directly and easily hydrolysed to acetic acid.
