In the former investigation the yellow colouring matters, generally known as the xanthophyll group, which accompany chlorophyll in the healthy green leaves, and which are extracted along with it by means of alcohol, were separated from the chlorophyll by treating the alcoholic extracts with an excess of animal charcoal in the cold, by which means the chlorophyll is absorbed by the charcoal, leaving the yellow colouring matters in the alcohol. On investigating this crude yellow solution it became evident that more than one colouring matter was present, and I now give the results of the experiments I have made in the endeavour to further isolate the constituents of this group by means of carbon bisulphide, which method was adopted by Sorby in his investigation of the different colouring matters present in plants.
